Summary
Rudy Giuliani has been ordered to appear in a New York City court on Thursday after missing a deadline to surrender assets, including his $5m apartment and valuable memorabilia, as part of a $148m defamation judgment.
The judgment stems from Giuliani’s false claims against Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whom he accused of election fraud in 2020, leading to severe harassment for both women.
Lawyers for Freeman and Moss reported Giuliani’s apartment had been cleared out, with valuables moved to storage weeks ago. Giuliani’s team calls the demands intimidation tactics.
This would be a fun bit of justice porn after seeing Trump get away with everything.
I don’t think you can pardon a civil case?
On the other hand, it might just be the first sign of the naked corruption we can expect to see more of.
