Jean Carroll’s yearslong court battle to hold the man who sexually abused her legally accountable has been extraordinary in many ways.
The televised megatrial between actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard last year was a high-profile example, but such cases also involve the non-famous. In my review of these lawsuits, some of the plaintiffs included an acroyoga instructor, an airport maintenance chief, a massage therapist, and a bar owner. One man whom prosecutors charged with sexually assaulting a woman in South Carolina filed a defamation lawsuit against her while his criminal case was still ongoing.
While jurors didn’t find Trump liable for raping Carroll, the verdict was largely a vindication of her story. The jury had three options to choose from if they believed Trump committed battery: They could have found that Trump had raped her; that he had sexually abused her; or that he had forcibly touched her.
