Guiliani found guilty of defaming Georgia election workers

[StmarysCity79]

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.

Giuliani spent weeks accusing Freeman and Moss of manipulating ballots during Georgia’s vote counting process after the 2020 election, despite repeated investigations that debunked and discredited the allegations.

The harassment that Freeman and Moss endured as a result of these conspiracy theories is at the heart of some of the criminal charges now facing several of Trump’s co-defendants in the Georgia racketeering case brought by Fulton County prosecutors. Giuliani is charged in that case, in part, for “false statements” to Georgia legislators related to his attacks on Freeman and Moss.

Howell has now ordered the case to proceed to a trial purely to determine the amount of damages Giuliani will now be forced to shoulder on charges of defamation, civil conspiracy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Yeah, the Obama appointed judge that allowed for attorneys to be questioned by Jack Smith (ignoring long standing attorney-client privileges) and then turned over their notes she had possession of (which were protected as work product). Nope, nothing wrong here!

None of those things happened.

Giuliani and Trump both accused these women of voter fraud despite no evidence resulting in death threats from cult members like you.

If he had followed the law and not made up lies none of this would have happened.

Why do you like threatening black people for doing their jobs?

Yep, this is what happens when you allow fascists to target their political opponents and hold "trials" in pretty much 100% political hivemind jurisdictions. Democrats aren't known for their fairness and understanding of the law - their overlords command them to find the political opposition guilty, and that's what they mindlessly do.

But their day is coming. The day always comes for fascists and their loyal acolytes.

Why are you committing libel?

Didn't you want Trump to lock Hillary up once he became president?

Your complaints hold no weight since this is the exact platform Trump ran on and you cheered for HYPOCRITE

Now you are mad that you believe it is actually happening.

Corrupt Obama Judge Finds Rudy Giuliani Guilty Because He Didn’t Turn Over Devices the FBI Confiscated from His Home​

Hidden in far-left Politico’s report is the following:

Giuliani has blamed several factors for his difficulties in searching his records for evidence relevant to the case. Those factors include the FBI’s seizure of his devices in 2021 as part of a foreign-influence investigation (which did not lead to any charges against him) and serious personal financial difficulties he has faced since Trump’s defeat in 2020.
“The FBI took every electronic device in my apartment and my law office,” Giuliani said at a May hearing in the suit. Indignantly insisting that he was not trying to deny the plaintiffs access to evidence related to their claims, he said: “I’ve been dealing with this for 50 years. I understand the obligation. … There’s nothing I want to hide. I’d like them to see everything. … Not being perfect doesn’t mean you’re deleting things. I don’t delete things.”
Ted Goodman, a political advisor to Giuliani, echoed that point Wednesday, calling the ruling “a prime example of the weaponization of our justice system, where the process is the punishment.”
“This decision should be reversed, as Mayor Giuliani is wrongly accused of not preserving electronic evidence that was seized and held by the FBI,” Goodman said.
