Former US President Donald Trump sexually abused and defamed magazine columnist E Jean Carroll a New York civil court finds
The jury - consisting of six men and three women - began deliberations linked to accusations of battery and defamation as part of the lawsuit on Tuesday.
Taking to the platform once again, the former President wrote: "I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHO THIS WOMAN IS. THIS VERDICT IS A DISGRACE - A CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME!" The guilty verdict will now see the former president forced to pay $280,000 in punitive damages to Ms Carroll for the defamation.
