纽约市一个陪审团裁定，美国前总统川普对性侵作家伊丽莎白·简·卡罗尔负有责任。
The jury of six men and three women announced its findings in a federal courtroom on its first day of considering the evidence. It awarded a total of $5 million to Carroll who said Trump raped3 her. The case is a civil legal action, not a criminal one.
这个由6名男子和3名女子组成的陪审团在审议证据的第一天就在联邦法院宣布了它的裁决。陪审团总共判给声称被川普强奸的卡罗尔500万美元。这起案件是民事诉讼，并非刑事诉讼。
The jury found that Carroll had not proved that she was raped. But, it found Trump liable for sexual abuse. It also found Trump guilty of insulting, or defaming, Carroll after she made her claims public.

Carroll told the jury that Trump raped her in a department store in Manhattan in either 1995 or 1996. She also said that Trump damaged her public image in an October 2022 post on his Truth Social social media service. He wrote that her claims were a "complete con2 job," "a hoax4" and "a lie."
卡罗尔告诉陪审团，川普于1995年或1996年在曼哈顿一家百货公司强奸了她。她还表示，川普曾于2022年10月在他创办的Truth社交网站上发表了一个帖子，内容损害了她的公众形象。他写道，她的说法是“彻头彻尾的欺诈”，是“一场骗局”和“一个谎言”。
Carroll's lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, showed the jury a video of Trump talking to a television show host about sexually violating women.

The Associated Press reported that jurors heard from Jessica Leeds who said Trump sexually assaulted her in an airplane in the 1970s. Natasha Stoynoff, a writer, also gave evidence that Trump kissed her against her will in 2005. Carroll's lawyer told the jury that Trump's not attending the trial supported her case. She said, "Donald Trump is a witness against himself."
美联社报道称，陪审团联系了杰西卡·利兹，利兹称川普于二十世纪七十年代在一架飞机上性侵了她。作家娜塔莎·斯托伊诺夫也提供了证据，证明川普在2015年违背其意志亲吻了她。卡罗尔的律师对陪审团表示，川普不出席庭审坐实了她的案件。她说：“川普是他自己的反方证人。”
Trump's defense5 lawyers said Carroll said things that were hard to believe and that she pressed the case to sell a book she released in 2019.
川普的辩护律师表示，卡罗尔说的话令人难以置信，她主张这起案件是为了推销她在2019年发行的书。
Shortly after the ruling, Trump reacted angrily on social media. He called the decision a "disgrace" and said he does not know Carroll.
裁决后不久，川普在社交媒体上愤怒地做出回应。他称这个裁决是“耻辱”并称他不认识卡罗尔。
