NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Donald Trump, the ex-President who was ruled to be involved in committing sexual abuse, battery, and defamation reacted to the ruling. “I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHO THIS WOMAN IS,' Trump wrote in all caps on his Truth Social website. 'THIS VERDICT IS A DISGRACE - A CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME!” he wrote. The jury comprised of three men and three women found him guilty and ordered him to pay $5 million in damages.
Roberta Kramer, the attorney of accuser E Jean Carroll had Trump look at a black and white photo to identify the group, which included himself during his videotaped deposition. Trump said when asked if he identified the victim, “That's Marla, that's my wife.” He could only recognize through the wife of his lawyer, Alina Habba about Caroll. “'I don't even know who the woman is. Let's see, I don't know who – it's Marla,' said Trump.

"He was trying to kiss me. He was trying to pull me towards him. He was grabbing my breasts. It was like he had 40 million hands." She told the jury, "It was when he started putting his hand up my skirt that gave me a jolt of strength. And that’s when she decided to not put up with it anymore while "storming back to my seat in the back of the coach," reports the Daily Mail.
