E. Jean Carroll's Allegation Trump Raped Her Goes to Court

The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 26, 2023

The journalist and advice columnist E. Jean Carroll has accused former President Trump of raping her in a department store dressing room in the '90s - and the case in court this week stems from a lawsuit she was able to file because of the Adult Survivors Act. Jane Manning, director, Women's Equal Justice Project and former sex crimes prosecutor, offers legal analysis of the case, and New York's Adult Survivors Act — which opened up a one-year "lookback" window for adult survivors of sexual assault to file civil lawsuits.
