President Trump Has Been Hit With a Subpoena for Sexual Assault Allegations
President Trump has been issued a subpoena by lawyers representing Summer Zervos, a former contestant on The Apprentice and one of several women accusing the POTUS of sexual assault, BuzzFeed News learned on Sunday. The subpoena directs the Trump campaign to preserve all documents pertaining to, "any woman alleging that Donald J. Trump touched her inappropriately," and is part of an ongoing defamation lawsuit Zervos filed after Trump denied her allegations that he kissed and grabbed her back in 2007.
Neither White House or Trump's lawyers have responded to BuzzFeed's request for comment. Trump's team has until the end of the month to respond to the subpoena.
