Rudy Giuliani is liable for defaming Georgia election workers, judge rules U.S. District Court Judge Beryl Howell ordered Giuliani to pay the two election workers punitive damages.
A federal judge ruled Wednesday that Rudy Giuliani is legally liable for defaming two Georgia election workers who became the subject of conspiracy theories related to the 2020 election that were amplified by Donald Trump in the final weeks of his presidency.
In an unsparing, 57-page ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Beryl Howell said Giuliani had flagrantly violated her orders to preserve and produce relevant evidence to the election workers, Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, resulting in a “default” judgment against him. She also ordered him to pay Freeman and Moss “punitive” damages for failing to fulfill his obligations. A jury will determine the amount of those damages. ... Howell’s ruling is tied to Freeman and Moss’ separate lawsuit against Giuliani in federal court in Washington for defamation, civil conspiracy and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Howell has now ordered the case to proceed to a trial purely to determine the amount of damages Giuliani will have to pay them. ... Howell, an appointee of President Barack Obama, said in her ruling Wednesday that she considered it possible that Giuliani concluded that dodging his obligations related to the election workers’ lawsuit made sense strategically to avoid giving fodder to prosecutors or lawyers pursuing other cases.
Didn’t they get caught pulling boxes from under a table and recorded running the same stacks of ballots through the tabulators multiple times? I mean if the court has a better explanation than what I saw with my own eyes, I’d like to hear it. They don’t give an explanation. Rigged
Giuliani offered no defense to their claims. He tried to do some kind of "no contest" plea, but admitted he told false stories about them.

Such bullshit, everyone watched the videos.
I need a "ginger mint" to calm my rage before I explode.
On his radio show today Rudy said the FBI had the documents she wanted....he couldn't comply.
The Documents from the FBI were turned over to Giuliani. Giuliani used a company called Trustpoint to maintain these electronic records and search on them.

Rudy told the court back in May he couldn't afford to turn over these documents because he owed Trustpoint $320,000 and couldn't pay them. Judge said he had until the end of June to work it out.
Earlier this month reports came out he complained to Trump that he need legal funds back in April. Trump wouldn't pay them.

It seems Trump agreed to pay them this month
Trump is hosting a $100,000 a plate fundraiser in Bedminster for Rudy after Labor day. https://nypost.com/2023/08/23/trump-to-headline-fundraiser-for-rudy-giulianis-legal-defense/
I think I'll believe Rudy as opposed to the links you posted.

stop posting fake news articles
These facts are not fake.
Rudy was sued for defamation.
Rudy didn't put up a defense. He conceded his statements were false.
The judge ruled against him in a default judgement, meaning, there's going to be no trial to determine if Rudy defamed them. They are going straight to damages.
Why Rudy didn't put up a defense is curious and can be debated. But those three things are true.
Whether you like them or not.

All part of the plan.

Politico has a leftist slant. Read the Fox story posted by TomPaineSentMe
I think I might be TomPaineSentMe.
I saw it on Twitter and Politico was the first to have the story up.
Lots of other news orgs have it now.
And this is about something that happened today in court. Those stories are usually just what the judge or the court filing said.
Here's the judge's filing. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.238720/gov.uscourts.dcd.238720.93.0_2.pdf
Yes, it was your post in the same story that I wanted others to see as Politico always gives a left view and I usually don’t believe them. Anyway, thanks.
wow... dem dindus sure did du
Off-topic: Have you guys seen Painkiller? How do you guys feel about Rudy’s part?
I did see Painkiller.
Hulu also did a story on the Sacklers called Dopesick and I recommend that one.
Netflix also has a crazy documentary called The Pharmacist that's totally worth checking out If you into the subject. The Pharmacist is like two movies in one, the story takes a turn.
As for Rudy? He clearly won his case outside the courtroom. Purdue was fined, three executives were found guilty, BUT the win was they were able to keep on selling Oxycontin even to the VA and Medicare.
Purdue was Giuliani Partners first client. He was not just their lawyer, but did PR for them. By the time Rudy ran for President, he was worth $30 million and had a big house in the Hamptons.
