Judge tells Trump to ‘keep his voice down' at E. Jean Carroll defamation trial

A federal judge reprimanded a lawyer representing former President Donald Trump during a sex assault defamation trial in New York. The lawyer requested a postponement so Trump could attend a funeral, but the judge denied the request. The judge had to tell Trump to keep his voice down in court after he made audible comments. The trial involves writer E. Jean Carroll, who accused Trump of rape and defamation. Carroll testified about the damage caused by Trump’s defamatory statements and denial of her rape allegation. This is the second trial related to Carroll’s claims against Trump.
