The New York advice columnist who claims President Donald Trump raped her two decades ago is demanding a sample of his DNA as part of her lawsuit accusing him of lying about the alleged encounter.

E. Jean Carroll, who went public with her claim in a June magazine article and sued Trump in November, says the sample may help prove her story if it matches DNA found on a dress she wore during the alleged encounter.
