Was Trump found guilty of rape and now going to prison or is that just word salad that the judge thinks Trump raped that lady.


He was found liable for sexual assault in civil court which carries no legal penalties except compensation for the opposing party. Also, there was no formal trial the judge just summarily ruled him liable.

Pretty sure this is not correct.

Jury finds Trump liable for sexual abuse, awards accuser $5M

quote:

A jury found Donald Trump liable Tuesday for sexually abusing advice columnist E. Jean Carroll in 1996, awarding her $5 million in a judgment that could haunt the former president as he campaigns to regain the White House.

The verdict was split: Jurors rejected Carroll’s claim that she was raped, finding Trump responsible for a lesser degree of sexual abuse. The judgment adds to Trump’s legal woes and offers vindication to Carroll, whose allegations had been mocked and dismissed by Trump for years.

She nodded as the verdict was announced in a New York City federal courtroom only three hours after deliberations had begun, then hugged supporters and smiled through tears. As the courtroom cleared, Carroll could be heard laughing and crying.

Jurors also found Trump liable for defaming Carroll over her allegations. Trump did not attend the civil trial and was absent when the verdict was read.
