Trump rape accuser's lawyers says president is doing 'everything he can' to stop her case

Lawyers representing a writer who accuses Donald Trump of raping her in the 1990s have said Mr Trump is doing “everything he can to stop the truth from ever coming out”.

Specifically, lawyers acting for E. Jean Carroll have said the president is delaying the case with efforts to avoid providing DNA evidence and an insistence on waiting for a judgment in a different case which could take months to be handed down.

Ms Carroll is suing Mr Trump for defamation after he accused her of “totally lying” in a book she released last year, in which she alleged he raped her in the 1990s.

As part of the evidence-gathering process for her case, Ms Carroll’s team are seeking a DNA sample from Mr Trump to test against genetic material on a dress she says she wore during the alleged rape – and which she claims not to have worn or laundered since, except for a photoshoot last year.
