An attorney for Summer Zervos, a former contestant on The Apprentice who has accused President Trump of sexual assault, says that phone records released by the Trump Organization "strongly corroborate" her allegations.
The phone records from December 2007 and January and February 2008 were turned over in 2018 and recently made public, after the Trump Organization fought to keep them private. In a court memo filed by attorney Mariann Wang, she said the records show there were six calls made between Trump and Zervos during that three-month period, including one on the day Zervos said Trump invited her to dinner at a hotel in Beverly Hills. Both parties "were exactly where she said they were, exactly when she said they were there," Wang said.
