The New York Times and the Gannett newspaper chain have petitioned the New York Supreme Court to unseal records from Donald Trump’s 1990 divorce proceedings with Ivana Trump. Unsealed records could determine if Ivana directly accused Trump of raping or sexually assaulting her during their 14-year marriage. According to the book “Lost Tycoon,” Ivana used the word “rape” during one deposition in the divorce case. She later softened her language, saying she felt “violated” during an encounter where Donald Trump reportedly held back her arms and pulled out fistfuls of her hair.
