Episode Details

E. Jean Carroll has officially received over five million dollars from Donald Trump — covering her jury award and interest — after the Supreme Court upheld her civil verdict for sexual assault and defamation. Despite Trump’s legal team’s attempts to block the payout, the court denied their emergency motion, and the funds, held in escrow since last year, are now in her hands. Carroll plans to invest the money into retirement. The case stems from a 1996 alleged assault in a department store dressing room and Trump’s subsequent defamatory remarks in her 2019 memoir. Trump denies any wrongdoing. This settlement is separate from another recent verdict awarding Carroll $83 million, which Trump is also appealing — but for now, Carroll’s legal victory has paid out in full.
