Well, you probably heard, or maybe you're just tuning in. Trump has been found liable in a civil

court in New York of battery and defamation involving a sexual assault against a writer named

E. Jean Carroll. This happened in the mid-1990s.

1990. And they awarded her $5 million. We're going to go to Royal Oaks, legal analyst, ABC News for KFI,
