TL;DR Summary

A judge has rejected Donald Trump's request to learn the identities of jurors expected to decide whether he defamed writer E. Jean Carroll, who also claims he raped her. The judge said it was his choice whether to use questionnaires, and nothing has changed his decision to seat an anonymous jury at the April 25 trial, reflecting the threat of juror harassment. Trump had argued that his recent criminal indictment had brought on a "deluge of prejudicial media coverage" that would make it tough to find an impartial jury in Carroll's civil case.
