Rudy Giuliani faces contempt charges for continuing to spread false claims about Georgia election workers after a jury awarded them $148 million in damages for defamation.
Rudy Giuliani was found in contempt of court Friday for continuing to spread lies about two former Georgia election workers after a jury awarded the women a $148 million defamation judgment. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell found Giuliani violated court orders barring him from defaming Wandrea “Shaye” Moss and her mother, Ruby Freeman. She ordered him to review trial testimony and other materials from the case, and warned him that future violations could result in possible jail time.
Giuliani is accused of falsely accusing Moss and Freeman of committing election fraud in connection with the 2020 election. His lies upended their lives with racist threats and harassment. Shortly before the hearing began, Giuliani slammed the judge in a social media post, calling her “bloodthirsty” and biased against him and the proceeding a “hypocritical waste of time.
