Trump faces third defamation trial — and this time damages could be devastating: lawyer

Raw Story  

Donald Trump could be hit by a third defamation suit after he attacked E. Jean Carroll again in a January 17 press conference — and this time the financial hit could be devastating, a lawyer said Carroll’s lawyer has a transcript of the press event in which the former president repeated claims that Carroll lied about him sexually assaulting her in the 1990s, Newsweek reported. Now attorney Bryan M. Sullivan, who represents Hunter Biden, told Newsweek a third defamation case is on the radar — and this time the damages could be even higher than those he already has to pay. "It would give the court potential grounds to issue an injunction precluding Trump from speaking about the claims that can be subsequently enforced in contempt proceedings," he said. During the press conference, Trump said, "The witness today, the person I never knew, I never had anything to do with, it's a totally rigged deal, this whole thing is rigged — election interference.
