E. Jean Carroll testified in a New York federal courtroom against Donald Trump in her second civil defamation suit, alleging that Trump defamed her after she accused him of sexual assault in the 1990s. The judge reprimanded Trump for making loud criticisms of Carroll during her testimony, threatening to remove him from the courtroom.
