Former Mayor of NYC, Rudy Giuliani, Is a Target of Criminal Investigation Regarding 2020 Election
Donald Trump’s former attorney Rudy Giuliani is a target of the criminal investigation in Georgia that has been examining efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in that state by the former president and his allies, a source briefed on the matter confirmed on Monday.
The move to designate Giuliani, 78, as a target – as opposed to a subject – raises the legal stakes for the ex-New York mayor, identified as a key figure in the attempt to reverse the former president’s electoral defeat to Joe Biden in the state.
It also raises the legal pressure on Trump, who is himself facing increased legal exposure amid a justice department investigation over his unlawful retention of government documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort, along with a state investigation in New York over his business practices.
