Former U.S. President Donald Trump is set to take the stand in a civil defamation trial brought against him by E. Jean Carroll, who has accused him of sexual abuse. The trial, taking place at the Manhattan federal courthouse, has already found Trump liable for defaming Carroll. The focus of the current trial is to determine the extent of damages Trump will be required to pay.
Carroll's team is expected to present their final witness, her former editor at L magazine, who will testify on her behalf. Additionally, clips of a videotape deposition given by Trump will be introduced as evidence. In his deposition, Trump has repeatedly denied Carroll's claims and confused her with his second wife, Marla Maples. Trump has maintained that he does not know Carroll and that she is not his type.
