And if you're concerned about Flock and other government surveillance cameras, here's one way the state of Florida is using them:
DeSantis Admin Sends TEN State Trooper Vehicles to Rainbow Crosswalk Chalk Protest

On Friday, I saw TEN FHP vehicles sent to watch one guy chalk the Pulse crosswalk. FDOT also apparently spends $1,500 a pop each time they pressure wash the rainbow away.

from the previously linked article, a summary of Kaplan's opinion:
“The finding that Ms. Carroll failed to prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape,’ ” Kaplan wrote.
He added: “Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found that Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that.”
Kaplan said New York’s legal definition of “rape” is “far narrower” than the word is understood in “common modern parlance.”
The former requires forcible, unconsented-to penetration with one’s penis. But he said that the conduct the jury effectively found Trump liable for — forced digital penetration — meets a more common definition of rape. He cited definitions offered by the American Psychological Association and the Justice Department, which in 2012 expanded its definition of rape to include penetration “with any body part or object.”
Note also this 7/19/2023 WaPo article about Judge Kaplan's ruling. Headline: "Judge clarifies: Yes, Trump was found to have raped E. Jean Carroll"

WaPo's comments section knows it's nonsense to use "allegedly" post-verdict (and definitely after SCOTUS upholds!). The AI summary begins with that.
I searched WaPo's article archive for "E. Jean Carroll" and cannot find another example of them using "allegedly" post-verdict.

An attorney for the plaintiffs told @Mediaite the case could generate “millions, if not billions, in damages." (link in next tweet)
Informative & highly detailed segment by @jrpsaki on @PsakiBriefing@MSNOWNews about Ken Paxton's many messes (aka why reporters can call him "scandal-plagued" without having to tag their articles as opinion). And a little cameo for an article I wrote earlier today. 😁#txsen /1
