California woman accusing Donald Trump of raping her when she was 13 years old to break her silence The woman behind a potentially damaging lawsuit accusing Donald Trump of raping her when she was an underage teen will break her silence today, her lawyer said. The California woman, known until now as “Jane Doe,” will finally give voice to long-denied allegations that the Republican presidential nominee sexually assaulted her in New York during a series of sex parties hosted by alleged billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in 1994. The woman filed a lawsuit in Manhattan Supreme Court in June. She is scheduled to speak at a Los Angeles press conference this afternoon. She said she was 13 at the time of the alleged attacks. Lawsuit accusing Trump of raping girl, 13, gets December hearing “Immediately following this rape, Defendant Trump threatened me that, were I ever to reveal any of the details of Defendant Trump’s sexual and physical abuse of me, my family and I would be physically harmed if not killed,” the plaintiff said in an affidavit. 12 photos view gallery The women accusing Donald Trump of sexual assault She says that since Trump launched his campaign and received mass media coverage, she has been “subjected to daily painful reminders of the horrific acts.” A similar lawsuit by the woman was dismissed by a Los Angeles Federal Court in May. A lawyer who was representing the woman at the time, Thomas Meagher, said the original suit, which she filed without the help of an attorney, was dismissed because it cited statutes that did not apply to the case. Trump campaign manager: There’d be no rape if women were stronger Alan Garten, vice president and general counsel of the Trump Organization, has said the allegations were “categorically untrue, completely fabricated and politically motivated.” Epstein, who is also named as a defendant, has also denied the allegations. Epstein is alleged to have preyed on dozens of underage girls in the late 1990s and early 2000s, but pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor in just one case in 2008. But the woman’s new lawyer, Lisa Bloom, said the case against Trump cannot be ignored. She has even launched a GoFundMe page to raise money to support Trump’s sexual assault accusers. “My law firm will proudly represent any accusers sued by Donald Trump and crowd fund defense costs,” Bloom tweeted. “Can’t wait to take his deposition!” Billionaire perv Jeffrey Epstein must testify in victim’s lawsuit Bloom is the daughter of noted women’s rights lawyer Gloria Allred.
