FLASHBACK: THE RAPE CASE THAT STARTED AT A RESISTANCE PARTY. The lawsuit accusing former President Donald Trump of rape, Carroll v. Trump, goes to the jury Tuesday. Maybe the decision will be quick, and maybe it won't. In any event, it is important to remember that the accuser, former Elle writer E.

All Carroll has to do is convince the New York-area jury that the assault more likely than not happened. It's a far lower standard than a criminal charge of rape. And even that charge, in a lawsuit, could not have been brought without New York's one-time-only #MeToo law, allowing people who said they were victimized many years ago but never brought charges to take action against the person they say attacked them. If you haven't been following Carroll v. Trump, it is, given that it involves Trump, a highly politicized affair. Here, from last month, is the background of the case, including some things the judge in the trial made sure the jury was not told about.
