NEW YORK — A New York City judge on Friday said lawyers for E. Jean Carroll may call two women who have accused Trump of sexual misconduct as witnesses at his upcoming civil rape trial, and play the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape for the jury.
Manhattan Federal Court Judge Lewis Kaplan gave the green light to all of Carroll’s requests in a 23-page ruling.
Carroll, who is suing Trump for defamation and sexual battery claims, has accused him of raping her in Bergdorf Goodman on Fifth Avenue in the mid-1990s. Trump denies the allegation.
