作家e·让·卡罗尔(E. Jean Carroll)起诉总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trumpover)性虐待和诽谤，作为特朗普支付的民事判决的一部分，他获得了超过500万美元。
她的代表周二表示，总计超过562万美元的资金已经转移到卡罗尔名下。
2023年，一个陪审团裁定，特朗普应对20世纪90年代在曼哈顿一家百货公司的更衣室对前《Elle》杂志专栏作家卡罗尔进行性虐待负责，他在2022年的一篇社交媒体帖子中诽谤她，称她的指控是“骗局和谎言”，并说“这个女人不是我喜欢的类型!”
卡罗尔的律师罗伯塔·卡普兰(Roberta Kaplan)周二在一份声明中说，“三年前，一个九人陪审团一致认定，特朗普总统对e·简·卡罗尔(E. Jean Carroll)的性侵犯和诽谤负有责任。”“今天，我们很高兴地宣布，她已经收到了陪审团根据判决判给她的赔偿金。”
在美国最高法院拒绝听取特朗普对判决和判决的上诉后，纽约的一名联邦法官上周命令特朗普支付500万美元的判决费和近80万美元的利息。特朗普在上诉期间已将555万美元存入联邦政府的法院注册投资系统，由第三方保管。
最高法院驳回他的上诉后，特朗普在社交媒体上发帖，发誓要继续打这场官司。

特朗普在帖子中说:“我将继续以我所有的权力和力量，反对这场针对我的武器化和法律诉讼，包括诽谤的荒谬指控。”
2024年，在一次单独的审判后，特朗普被判向卡罗尔支付8330万美元的损害赔偿，因为他在2019年否认了她的性虐待指控。特朗普正在继续对这一判决提出上诉。
E. Jean Carroll receives $5 million payment from Trump for civil suit
Writer E. Jean Carroll, who sued PresidentDonald Trumpover claims of sexual abuse and defamation, has received more than $5 million as part of a civil judgment paid by Trump.
Funds totaling more than $5.62 million have been transferred to Carroll, her representatives said Tuesday.
A jury determined in 2023 that Trump was liable forsexually abusing Carroll, a former Elle magazine columnist,in the dressing room of a Manhattan department store in the 1990s, and that he defamed her in a 2022 social media post by calling her allegations "a Hoax and a lie" and saying "This woman is not my type!"
"Three years ago, a unanimous nine-person jury found President Trump liable for sexually assaulting and defaming E. Jean Carroll," Carroll's attorney Roberta Kaplan said in a statement Tuesday. "Today, we are pleased to report that she has received the damages payment the jury awarded her as a result of that verdict."
A federal judge in New York last week ordered Trump topay the $5 million judgmentplus almost $800,000 in interest, after the U.S. Supreme Courtdeclined to hear Trump's appealof the verdict and judgment. Trump had deposited $5.55 million in the federal government's Court Registry Investment System to be held in escrow during his appeal.
Trump, in a social media post following the Supreme Court's rejection of his appeal, had vowed to continue to fight the case.
