Jury Awards E. Jean Carroll $83.3 Million in Defamation Case Against Donald Trump

The verdict, stemming from Trump's defamatory remarks following a sexual assault conviction, marks a significant legal and financial blow to the former president.

A jury awarded E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million in damages from Donald Trump, convicted of sexually assaulting and defaming her.
The trial highlighted Trump's erratic decision-making and contempt for the judicial process, contributing to the massive judgment.
Trump's legal team faced criticism for their handling of the case, with lead attorney Alina Habba's competence questioned.
The jury's decision was influenced by Trump's continuous attacks on Carroll, even during the trial, and his disregard for courtroom decorum.
Trump vows to appeal the $83.3 million decision but has not publicly called Carroll a liar since the verdict.
