1:34Now PlayingDonald Trump has filed a defamation suit against E. Jean Carroll, alleging the writer falsely accused him of rape — after a Manhattan federal jury found the former president liable for sexual assault in her civil case against him.
Trump, 77, filed counterclaims against the former “Ask E. Jean” advice columnist on Tuesday accusing her of defaming him when she maintained in a CNN interview that he raped her, despite the jury only determining he should be on the hook for sexual abuse.
Carroll, 79, “made these statements knowing each of them were false or with reckless disregard for their truth and falsity,” the filing alleges.
Jurors on May 9 awarded Carroll a $5 million verdict in the case, finding Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation for claiming in Oct. 22 that he didn’t know Carroll and calling her accusations a hoax after she went public.
Carroll has another lawsuit pending against Trump for allegedly defaming her in a series of public statements made after she came out with her accusations in June 2019.
