Jane Doe / Katie Johnson drops her lawsuit against Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein after an onslaught of violent threats and her attorney’s files and email are hacked.
Johnson (pseudonym) planned to give a press conference on November 2nd but backed out in fear for her and attorney Lisa Bloom’s safety. Two days later, the case is dropped.
“Jane Doe has received numerous threats today, as have all the Trump accusers that I have represented,” said the woman’s attorney, Lisa Bloom.
“She is living in fear. She has decided that she is too afraid to show her face. She has been here all day, ready to do it, but unfortunately, she’s in terrible fear.”

Johnson alleged that Trump and Epstein sexually assaulted her at multiple parties in 1994, including violently raping her and threatening her life and the lives of her family if she ever spoke out.
The case included testimonies from a witness who was also at the parties, as well as a friend that Johnson confided in at the time.
