Donald Trump has paid E. Jean Carroll over $5.62 million following a 2023 jury verdict finding him liable for sexual abuse and defamation. The payment consists of a $5 million award plus accrued interest. The funds were released after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Trump's appeal and a federal judge ordered the payment. Trump still owes Carroll $83.3 million from a separate defamation case which he is currently appealing.
