Updates: E. Jean Carroll v. The Orange Ass

The lawyer said he would call no witnesses to rebut E. Jean Carroll’s account of being assaulted at Bergdorf Goodman. The case could go to a jury early next week.

E. Jean Carroll’s friend testifies in rape allegation trial as Trump declines to take the stand

Lisa Birnbach testified just hours before Trump’s attorney confirmed his client would not testify.

A longtime friend of E. Jean Carroll’s testified in federal court Tuesday that the writer called her “minutes” after she alleges Donald Trump raped her in a Manhattan department store, while an attorney for the former president told the judge that his client would not take the stand.

On the same day Lisa Birnbach described a 1996 phone conversation with Carroll after the alleged incident, Trump lawyer Joe Tacopina told U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan that Trump would not testify.

Another Trump accuser testifies

Also testifying Tuesday was Jessica Leeds, an 81-year-old retired stockbroker who has claimed Trump groped her on an airplane in the late 1970s.

She said that they chatted for a while and that after they ate, he suddenly “tried to kiss me” and started grabbing her breast. It was “like he had 40 zillion hands,” Leeds said.
