The press conference has been rescheduled due to death threats...

UPDATE: The press conference has been canceled, and will apparently be rescheduled:

Lisa Bloom: Jane Doe has received numerous threats today… She has decided she is too afraid to show her face.

“We’re going to have to reschedule. I apologize to all of you who came. I have nothing further.” @LisaBloom press conference is off.

I hope that she will speak to the press privately so they can corroborate.

Daily Beast wrote about it too. No TV because there's nothing to report really. TV will not report this unless an accuser comes forward with her face, period.

Trump is slimy enough to do that.

What is a million to him, like a penny. That would be an easy way to make this go away.

all subsequent filings have been as Jane Doe. However, she already outed herself.

I hope she continues with the process and doesn't drop the suit because of the threats.

AFAIK, the name she used to initially file the lawsuit was a pseudonym albeit one that sounded like a real name. When reporters tried to check out the name on the lawsuit, no record of that name was found and the address given was a vacant building/house/lot.
