The jury, whose names are being withheld for their safety, deliberated for three hours and reached a unanimous decision.
A federal court in New York has ordered Donald Trump to pay $83.3 million in damages to writer and journalist Jean Carroll for libel. CNN reported this on Friday, January 26.
The jury decided that Trump should pay Carroll $18.3 million in damages, with $11 million to fund his campaign to restore his reputation and $7.3 million for emotional damages.
Trump must also pay a $65 million fine for malicious acts. We talk about his statements about Carroll. It was noted that the total amount was more than eight times higher than what he had originally asked for.
Trump himself called the New York jury’s verdict “absolutely ridiculous” and said he would challenge the decision.
Let’s remember that Jean Carroll claimed that the former President of the United States raped her in the mid-1990s, and then defamed her when she denied the writer’s claim.
Republican Nikki Gailey, who is competing with Donald Trump for the right to run for president of the US from the Republican Party, questioned her mental health after Trump confused her with Nancy Pelosi at a rally.
A judge has ordered former US President Donald Trump and his lawyers to pay more than $937,000 in fines for their lawsuit against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
