A writer who accused failed former president Trump of rape has filed a lawsuit
against him minutes after a new New York law allowing sexual violence victims
to sue over decades-old attacks came into effect.
78-year-old Elizabeth Jean Carroll's lawyer filed the legal papers electronically
as the Adult Survivor's Act temporarily lifted the state's deadlines for suing over
sexual assault. She is seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages
for pain and suffering, psychological harms, dignity loss and reputation damage.
Previously, Carroll had been barred by state law from suing over the alleged rape
because too many years had passed since it happened. New York's new law now
gives sex crime victims who missed statute of limitations deadlines a second chance
to file a lawsuit.
—Could this finally put the failed president behind bars?
Yes.
Two possibilities:
1) perjury
2) failure to pay damages
In a civil case, both of those things could see the alleged child rapist put behind bars.
Gordy, for some reason, doesn't understand that fact.
Not at all. Gordon has just told us all how the civil courts have what is cunningly called, a "burden of proof."
Gordon knows E.J Carroll has already pased the evidentary bar to proceed. Gordon knows the 45th prez has already admitted to the key facts of the case. Gordon knows how hard E Jean Carroll has fought to have her day in court, rejecting all settlement offers, reputedly in the tens of millions.
Gordon's just developed a fascination for the subject of civil law, as you do. Gordon's no Trump supporter.
He's our new resident legal eagle, no?
