@abcworldnews: BREAKING NEWS: A jury has found former Pres. Donald Trump liable for battery and defamation in the E. Jean Carroll case. The former Elle magazine columnist added a charge of battery under a recently adopted New York law that allows adult survivors of sexual abuse to sue their alleged attacker regardless of the statute of limitations. Trump has denied all allegations that he raped Carroll or defamed her. The jury awarded Carroll a total of $5 million in the lawsuit. Jury members found that Trump did not rape Carroll, but sexually abused her, and awarded damages of $2 million in compensatory damages and $20,000 in punitive damages for battery.
