There is also the case of the former 13-year old that is sputtering along. Someone in MSM needs to expose these allegations/accusations.

Lisa Bloom is very media-savvy. I hope she can get this on TV.

I guess Trump settled Katie Johnson's lawsuit out of court.

Closest thing I found was a on line article but I don't know the validity of the website.

BTW the two cases are from different people. This one is the pedophile rape case.The OP above appears to be a rape case but not of a underage girl.

I had posted an OP titled: "Did Donald Trump Settle His Child Rape Lawsuit?"
which I had to delete after reading your irontroll.com link.

The new OP is titled:
Trump Child Rape Case Dismissed, New Lawsuit To Be Filed
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1016167241


Apparently, the reason the suit was dismissed last Friday is because a second eyewitness has come forward, which will likely strengthen Katie Johnson's allegations against Trump.

Not that I am inclined to doubt anyone who claims sexual assault but her story sounds very believable.

Some history, and shady coverage about this:
http://lawnewz.com/high-profile/exclusive-inside-the-donald-trump-sexual-assault-lawsuit/

She spoke out after this Lawnewz piece came out.

Harth also claimed in the lawsuit that in 1993 Trump made numerous phone calls to her home in Boca Raton, Florida from New York demanding that she “sleep with him.” In the court filing, she also claimed that on January 9, 1993: “Trump forcefully removed (Harth) from public areas of Mar-A-Lago in Florida and forced (her) into a bedroom belonging to defendant’s daughter Ivanka, wherein (Trump) forcibly kissed, fondled, and restrained (her) from leaving, against (her) will and despite her protests.”


He's got the hots for his own daughter. EEEEEEEEEEEUWWWWWWW!!

According to the article, the case was dismissed on technicalities and refiled when she got a lawyer. There is an eye witness who use to be Trump's or Epstein's party planner. They both were informed she was underage. Really disgusting.

As a left leaning person I find this story a little to hard to believe. We need two sides of the story. This is what I hate about politics on the Right and Left. Both sides want to demonize the other side to an extreme. Donald makes a few insensitive remarks and now he is a woman hater and would probably harass women. I have listened to several videos against#Loser Donald and these videos make very good points but it seems to me that both elements on the Left and Right just have to over do it in their demonization.

some very fishy elements.... and apparently the court case of the 13 year old victim has been withdrawn

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jul/07/donald-trump-sexual-assault-lawsuits-norm-lubow

Lawsuits accusing Donald Trump of sexually assaulting a child in the 1990s appear to have been orchestrated by an eccentric anti-Trump campaigner with a record of making outlandish claims about celebrities.

Norm Lubow, a former producer on the Jerry Springer TV show, has previously been involved with disputed allegations that OJ Simpson bought illegal drugs on the day Simpson’s wife was murdered, and that Kurt Cobain’s widow had the Nirvana frontman killed.

Court filings in California and New York against Trump, purportedly on behalf of a woman using the name Katie Johnson, have in recent weeks alleged that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee raped Johnson when she was 13. Trump vehemently denies the allegations.

A publicist using the pseudonym “Al Taylor” is acting as a representative for Johnson, and has been shopping around to media outlets a video of a woman who wears a disguise while recounting the allegations against Trump. “Taylor” said in telephone calls last month that he was seeking $1m for the tape. Jezebel has published a segment of the video along with a detailed account of how the allegations against Trump were being pushed to reporters.
