Jean Carroll is finally getting her $5.8 million judgment after a federal judge approved it — plus accrued interest since the original 2021 jury award — as Trump’s Supreme Court appeal was denied. The case stems from a 1996 sexual abuse allegation and Trump’s subsequent defamation campaign, both of which juries found him liable for. Though Trump wasn’t present at the first trial — where Carroll testified about the incident in a department store dressing room — he’s still appealing a separate, much larger $83 million defamation verdict from January 2024. The legal saga continues, but this payout marks a major milestone in a high-profile, years-long battle. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
