The author who sued Donald Trump for defamation after he denied her rape allegation was inspired to sue, in part, by George Conway, one of the former president's most outspoken opponents, writer E. Jean Carroll testified on Monday.
Carroll — who sued Trump, alleging he raped her in the mid-1990s and later defamed her when she came forward in 2019 — told jurors Monday that she took up legal action within days after encouragement from George Conway, the ex-husband of former Trump aide Kellyanne Conway and a frequent critic of the former president.
The testimony took place on the same day the judge presiding over the trial, Lewis A. Kaplan, denied a motion by Trump's counsel to declare a mistrial in the civil sexual assault and defamation lawsuit. Several of Kaplan's objections came up when Tacopina questioned her last week about why she did not scream when she was allegedly raped in a Bergdorf Goodman department store by Trump and expressing doubt about Carroll's account that the store was relatively empty during the time of her claimed encounter.
