The Frankish Reich Posted January 31 Posted January 31 1 minute ago, Tommy Callahan said: And why it's in civil. Why there was no evidence to support a criminal case involved. Most of the evidence in that case was her argument and testimony. Nothing physical. Maybe that's because he's short-fingered. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/19/trump-carroll-judge-rape/ 1

It is kinda funny reading them try to make a false argument. But they know the reader IT IS THE JUDGE'S ORDER. Not the WaPo's summary. The judge RULED that what the jury found Trump did constitutes RAPE under the current-day definition. It didn't constitute RAPE under the common law or under old NY law, since that require actual penis/***** contact. In short (haha): the jury found that Trump penetrated her with his fingers. Deal with it. EDIT: so weird that the automated censor lets you write penis but not its female counterpart ... Edited January 31 by The Frankish Reich 1

Deal with it. Based on stories in a civil case . Kinda went full circle. In short they found him liable for it.
The Frankish Reich Posted January 31 Posted January 31 Just now, Tommy Callahan said: Based on stories in a civil case . Kinda went full circle. In short they found him liable for it. Yeah. That's what it means to say "a jury found that he did it." And the "it" here is "rape" under the modern definition. 1

Tommy Callahan Posted January 31 Posted January 31 Why are you all trying to just act like it's criminal trial and exaggerating liable for guilt and stories for hard evidence. 1

I can't answer for him, other than to say that there's a general lack of understanding here. For myself, i'll say: Yes, it is relevant that it was a civil verdict and not a criminal conviction. The standard of proof is considerably lower (here, the jury could have found that it is 51% likely that Trump did it). But it is also relevant that they returned a truly enormous award, which suggests that they were quite convinced that he needed to be punished for his outrageous behavior. 3 minutes ago, Tommy Callahan said: Why are you all trying to just act like it's criminal trial and exaggerating liable for guilt and stories for hard evidence. So, sure, argue whatever you want about what it all means. But the fact is that the statement, "Trump was found by a jury to have digitally penetrated Carroll" is absolutely true. 1

BillsFanNC Posted January 31 Posted January 31 We of course have different standards of legal proof. Beyond a reasonable doubt and preponderance of the evidence being what most people are familiar with. Then we have the DC, NYC etc. standard: Are the allegations against the great orange menace? Guilty. Evidence schmevidence. 1

Doc Posted January 31 Posted January 31 (edited) There were no "facts" in EJC's case. In fact she was about as reliable as Blasey-Ford and Araiza's accuser. Those are the facts. But get an "infallible" jury and anything is possible. Edited January 31 by Doc 1

The attorney in the above tweet admitted she had no problem investigating Trump in SEARCH OF crimes. That is quite literally what is done in banana republics. 1
