Trump has denied knowing accuser E. Jean Carroll and the alleged encounter.

NEW YORK - An Elle magazine advice columnist who is suing Donald Trump for defamation for denying he raped her approximately 24 years ago wants the U.S. president to provide a DNA sample to see if he came into contact with the dress she said she wore.

Lawyers for Trump did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Trump has denied knowing Carroll and the alleged encounter. Carroll sued over statements Trump later made, when he said he did not know her and that she was"totally lying" in order to boost book sales. Trump's lawyers may nonetheless ask the New York state judge overseeing the defamation case not to require a sample.
