13/ Klasfeld:

Context on the E. Jean Carroll rulings' nuance:

Evidence about "prior bad acts" must balance relevance with undue prejudice to the accused.

Trump isn't charged in this case with sexual assault, but falsifying business records. The judge allowed info that goes to his credibility.

This is why Merchan appeared to confine his green light to prosecutors on the Carroll verdicts to the defamation findings.
