EXCLUSIVE: Trump's 13-year-old 'rape victim' dramatically DROPS her case. Woman withdraws legal claim she was assaulted at Jeffrey Epstein sex party
The woman who alleged that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her at billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's notorious 'sex parties' in 1994 when she was a 13-year-old has dropped the civil lawsuit that was filed against him.
Trump's legal team branded the allegations 'disgusting at the highest level' and a 'hoax' clearly framed to 'solicit media attention or, perhaps... simply politically motivated'.
She first sued Trump and Jeffrey Epstein under the name Katie Johnson on April 26 in California federal court and filed an amended complaint in New York federal court in October, claiming she was subject to rape, criminal sexual acts, assault, battery and false imprisonment.
The court papers offer no corroborative evidence that her claims are true.
On Wednesday, Johnson suddenly cancelled a press conference at which she was set to reveal herself for the first time, saying she was 'too afraid' following a series of 'threats' against her.
News that the rape claims have been dropped will dismay Hillary supporters who had hoped the allegations would be the knock out blow for Trump's election campaign - already rocked in recent weeks by a string of sex assault claims.
Since the lawsuit first emerged thousands of loyal Hillary followers had opened a discussion about the rape claims on Twitter and other social networks hoping to damage Trump's push for the White House.
The Huffington Post jumped on the bandwagon of anti-Trump sentiment after she made her claims, asking: 'Donald Trump Is Accused Of Raping A 13-Year-Old. Why Haven't The Media Covered It?'
But DailyMail.com has learned that she has dropped the case against Trump, leading to speculation that Johnson's story may have been fabricated.
Johnson conducted an interview, accompanied by Lisa Bloom, her lawyer, with DailyMail.com before the canceled press conference.
DailyMail.com is aware of Johnson's real identity, but has chosen to continue not to name her, as she requested anonymity to discuss her claims.
She neither requested nor was she offered any compensation to tell her talk about her claims.
She claimed her motivation to tell her story was to expose Donald Trump to stop him from becoming president.
'We would have a rapist in the White House. I would feel horrified every single day if I stay in this country,' she said, in dramatic terms.
Johnson said her experiences in the summer in 1994 still haunt her today.
'As much as I try to forget about everything that happened, it always affects everything in my life,' she said. 'I mean it affects my relationships, I don't think I've ever had a successful relationship, one that I feel I can trust that person, there's always that mistrust.'
But she also said that in 1994 she had no idea who her attacker was and that it was only when she watched The Apprentice that she came to believe it was Trump, claiming that she could not forget her attacker's face.
DailyMail.com learned she has two DUIs and a felony drug possession on her record and a history of drug abuse.
Regardless of the truth of her claims, she clearly has a troubled past, and told DailyMail.com that she believes her experiences as a young girl led to those troubles.
The former real estate worker said recent spinal surgery has meant she is unable to work and claims disability welfare.
In lurid claims Johnson in court papers, she claimed Trump took her virginity, forced her in to role-play sex and alleges that he and financier Epstein treated her as a 'sex slave' during an 'horrific' summer in 1994.
Johnson also alleged she was sexually abused by Epstein himself - a convicted pedophile - on two different occasions during the same summer.
