Lawyers for Trump Accusers Have Message After Lawsuit Threat: Bring It On

http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/10/23/lawyers_for_trump_accusers_say_they_are_not_afraid_of_lawsuit_threats.html


Jill Harth, the first woman who publicly accused Trump of sexual misconduct, released a statement on Sunday in which she explained that she only chose to speak up after he called her a liar.
Trump’s calling me a liar again yesterday only strengthens my resolve to speak the truth about what he did to me.”

Lisa Bloom, Harth’s attorney, said she would “continue to proudly represent” her client through any lawsuits.
And then she goes for the jugular:
In that lawsuit I would take the deposition of Trump and all of his enablers, and subpoena his business and personal records as well as any recordings that may exist in which he brags about sexual assault, such as the Access Hollywood recording and potentially, the Apprentice raw footage.”

Be careful what you wish for, Mr. Trump,” said Allred. “If you sue the accusers, the lawyers who represent these women will have the opportunity to depose you.
In plain English, you will be required to testify under oath and the women’s lawyers will welcome the opportunity to question you under oath.

You may find the questions may include all the women with whom you have had sexual interaction.”
