lawyer sought Thursday to pick apart a decades-old rape claim against the former president, questioning why accuser E. Jean Carroll did not scream or seek help when Trump allegedly attacked her in a department store.
Trump's lawyer, Joseph Tacopina, suggested her claims strained credulity, contending she only came forward in 2019, midway through Trump's presidency, because of her disdain for his politics and because she wanted to sell copies of her book.FOX 5's Linda Schmidt outlines the day in court. Trump launched a counterattack Wednesday against the trial on social media, telling followers on his Truth Social platform the case was "a made up SCAM" and alluding to a DNA issue that Judge Lewis A. Kaplan has barred from the trial.This was the scene inside a New York courtroom as jurors were picked to hear a nearly 30-year-old claim of rape against Donald Trump. FOX 5 NY's Morgan McKay has the story.
The lawyer underscored, through his questions, that she didn't seek help from anyone in the store as she allegedly fled by riding six flights down an escalator, didn't ask about security video and didn't seek medical attention or call police.
