... orders him to pay $7.4m

New York | A jury has found Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing advice columnist E. Jean Carroll in 1996, awarding her $US5 million ($7.4 million) in a judgment that could haunt the former president as he campaigns to regain the White House.

Liar wins court case:

How can she say that Trump raped her but
the jury says NO - he sexually assaulted her.

Either she is lying or not.

The jury was saying that she lied but still awarded her US$5 million.

The jury said no such thing.

Stick to cucumbers, mustard boy - legal matters are way over your head.

And once AGAIN you misinterpret news reports that are correct,
and understood as such by most other commentators here.  How
do you mage this so often?

E. Jean Carroll has NEVER been accused of lying—by anyone other
than the long-acknowledged, inveterate liar Donald Trump.

The jury did NOT say in any shape or form that Carroll was lying
and/or had lied at any time in her testimony, in awarding her
$5 million in damages for her battery (and defamation) claims.

Asked on its verdict sheet whether Carroll had proven “by a
preponderance of the evidence” that “Mr. Trump raped Ms. Carroll,”
the nine-person jury checked the box that said “no.”       

Asked whether Carroll had proven “by a preponderance of the evidence”
that “Mr. Trump sexually abused Ms. Carroll,” the jury checked the box
that said “yes.” Both allegations were elements of Carroll’s battery claim.

—I note that the failed former president didn't even have the courage
to attend the court to defend the claims against him.  I'm guessing
this was typical of the cowardice that enabled him to dodge the draft
FIVE times—once for purported bone spurs, and four times for college. 

The bogus "diagnosis" was set up by podiatrist, Dr. Larry Braunstein,
as a favour to Trump's father Fred, who rented him practice rooms,
and who took care of a lot of "little problems" for Larry.

Which is why Senator Tammy Duckworth, a Purple Heart recipient,
once called him "Cadet Bone Spurs."
