E. Jean Carroll arrives at court for Trump rape, defamation trial | New York Post

E. Jean Carroll arrives at court as closing arguments began Monday morning in her ongoing civil trial accusing former President Donald Trump of raping her decades ago.

Lawyers for Carroll, 79, and Trump, 76, will deliver the remarks to the jury that has been overseeing the case for seven days of trial over the last two weeks in Manhattan federal court.

The “Ask E. Jean” advice columnist testified — a points through tears — for three days, telling jurors that Trump allegedly sexually assaulted her in the fitting room of Bergdorf Goodman — most likely in 1996.

Trump has denied the claims. While he has not attended any day of trial and is not expected to come before it’s conclusion, the jury did see 48-minutes of his video deposition by Carroll’s lawyers taken last year.
