E Jean Carroll received a $5.62 million payment from President Trump on Tuesday.
Last week, radical leftist Judge Lewis Kaplan ordered President Trump to pay E Jean Carroll $5 million – plus interest – after the Supreme Court rejected Trump’s bid to toss the sexual abuse case.
Judge Kaplan mentored E. Jean Carroll’s attorney, Roberta Kaplan (no relation), when they worked together previously at a law firm.
A Manhattan jury previously reached a verdict in the E. Jean Carroll rape/defamation case and ordered Trump to pay her $5 million.
In 2019, E. Jean Carroll alleged that Donald Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the 1990s.
Trump denied the allegations and called E. Jean Carroll a “whack job” who’s “not my type.”
Carroll previously said ‘rape is sexy’ and a ‘fantasy’ – CNN’s Anderson Cooper was so disturbed he cut to a commercial break.

The jury decided that E. Jean Carroll did not prove Trump raped her.
However, the jury said E. Jean Carroll proved Trump sexually abused her when he ‘inserted fingers into her vagina.’
Last Wednesday, US District Judge Lewis Kaplan, a Clinton appointee, ordered Trump to pay E Jean Carroll $5.62 million plus interest.
CBS News reported:
Three years after a jury concluded President Trump should pay $5 million in damages to the writer E. Jean Carroll for sexual abuse and defamation, she has at last been paid.
For Carroll, it’s a wait that began long before her federal civil lawsuit went to trial in 2023. The writer first went public with her story in 2019, accusing Mr. Trump of assaulting her in a department store dressing room three decades ago. The jury unanimously concluded a preponderance of evidence supported her claim.
Court records show Carroll received $5.62 million, including interest. Carroll’s attorney, Roberta Kaplan, hailed the writer’s victory in a statement to CBS News.
“Three years ago, a unanimous nine-person jury found President Trump liable for sexually assaulting and defaming E. Jean Carroll,” Kaplan said. “Today, we are pleased to report that she has received the damages payment the jury awarded her as a result of that verdict.”
