E. Jean Carroll's Civil Trial Against Donald Trump Begins.

Jury selection begins in the civil suit brought against former President Donald Trump by E. Jean Carroll, who accused him of raping her in a department store in the mid-1990s. Trump denies the allegations. This is the second suit Carroll has filed against Trump, and it contains a defamation claim. The trial is expected to last about a week, and both sides are expected to call witnesses to bolster their claims. The stakes are high for both parties, as Carroll is seeking unspecified damages and a retraction of a defamatory statement, while a verdict in her favor could be seen as a form of accountability for Trump.
