The Justice Department opened a criminal investigation in May 2026 focused on E. Jean Carroll’s testimony and related legal funding in her civil cases against President Trump, including potential perjury questions and support from a Reid Hoffman-linked nonprofit. No charges have been filed as of mid-August 2026. The probe remains the central factor shaping trader assessments of federal charging risk, alongside ongoing appeals in the parallel $83.3 million defamation verdict that the Supreme Court is set to consider when its October 2026 term begins. Developments such as investigative outcomes, witness statements, or shifts in DOJ priorities could alter implied probabilities before any charging decision.
