NEW YORK, March 29 — A US judge yesterday denied Donald Trump’s bid to throw out E. Jean Carroll’s defamation claim from next month’s high-profile trial over whether Trump raped the former Elle magazine columnist in the mid-1990s.
In his October 12 post, Trump said he did not know Carroll, that she made up the rape claim to promote her memoir, and that the claim was a “hoax”, “lie”, “con job” and “complete scam”. But the judge said Trump’s post was neither a “report of any judicial proceeding” nor a “fair and true report” of such a proceeding that would justify immunity.
Trump is awaiting a decision by a grand jury empanelled by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg over whether to indict him over his alleged role in a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 US presidential election.
