Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani surrendered at the Fulton County Jail in Georgia on Wednesday. N.J. Burkett has the details.Rudy Giuliani surrendered to authorities in Georgia on Wednesday on charges alleging he acted as former President Donald Trump's chief co-conspirator in a plot to subvert the 2020 election.
As he left for the airport Wednesday morning, he delivered some remarks to reporters outside of his Upper East Side home."Well I'm going to Georgia and I'm feeling very, very good about it because I feel like I'm defending the rights of all Americans as I did so many times as the U.S. attorney," he said. "People like to say I'm different; I'm the same Rudy Giuliani who shook down the mafia and made New York City the safest city in America.
Lawyers for the former mayor met with the Fulton County District Attorney's office early Wednesday to finalize a bond package before the surrender, the sources told ABC News. "And I get photographed. Isn't that nice? A mugshot for the man who probably put the worst criminals of the 20th century in jail," Giuliani said. "They're going to degrade themselves by doing a mugshot of me. Like people will recognize me. And of course, they'll fingerprint me, but I've been fingerprinted 150 times. This will turnout exactly like the FBI search turned out. They're lying. I'm telling the truth.
