Justice Dept Probes E Jean Carroll
Description
E Jean Carroll, the writer who famously sued Donald Trump and won, is now reportedly under federal investigation for possible perjury after allegedly failing to disclose that a nonprofit, funded by LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, covered some of her legal costs — a revelation made months after her initial deposition. Trump’s team accused her of hiding this to undermine her credibility, leading to a second deposition, though a federal appeals court later dismissed the perjury claim. This probe is part of a broader pattern targeting critics of Trump, including former FBI officials and lawmakers. Notably, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche — who previously represented Trump in Carroll’s case — has stepped aside due to conflict of interest. Neither the Justice Department nor Carroll’s team has publicly commented.
