Rudy Giuliani's apartment was emptied weeks ago, victims in defamation case say

Source: CNN Politics

Published 8:16 AM EST, Tue November 5, 2024


CNN — Rudy Giuliani must appear in person in federal court on Thursday after two election workers who are to receive nearly all of his most valuable assets told a judge they believe the former Donald Trump attorney is hiding items from them.

The complaint from the election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss – whom Giuliani owes nearly $150 million for defaming them after the 2020 election – comes after lawyers for the mother and daughter visited Giuliani’s $6 million Manhattan apartment and discovered much of the furniture and valuable sports memorabilia was recently removed.

“Save for some rugs, a dining room table, some stray pieces of small furniture and inexpensive wall art, and a handful of smaller items like dishes and stereo equipment, the Apartment has been emptied of all of its contents,” Freeman and Moss’ attorney Aaron Nathan wrote in a letter to the judge in the case. They are also trying to take possession, at the court’s direction, of Giuliani’s 26 luxury watches and a 1980 Mercedes-Benz he kept in Florida. But those also haven’t been handed over, court filings this week say.

Nathan said Giuliani and his lawyers’ approach to the bankruptcy proceedings is one of “evasion and silence.” Freeman and Moss’ lawyers had gone to the apartment last week to figure out how best to move the luxury items inside that should now be theirs, per the judge’s order, into storage. But the apartment was “substantially empty,” Nathan wrote.

Which would make sense since it's been for sale for months. They usually remove many personal items and clutter, etc.

It's also possible that he's since removed more items. The pictures from the real estate listing could probably be used to see what's left and what's gone. The pictures would have been taken months ago.

The question then is what was done with the stuff that was removed, either initially or later.

I just read a Raw Story piece. He was seen riding to Trump's polling station in the 1980 Mercedes Benz that used to belong to Lauren Bacall. The arrogant fucker was ordered by the judge to turn it over to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss by Oct 29th!!!!!!

If they is how they're treated, maybe they should play rough with "America's Grifter" (TM).

trying to game the US bankruptcy court he should receive jail until he complies. I'm going to guess that the luxury items are now outside the country. I don't know about the Mercedes but it may already be in a shipping container and on a boat heading overseas.

At least a stretch in jail might give Ghooliani the opportunity to suffer alcohol withdrawal.

Should jail him for contempt. Let him out after he coughs up the goods.

With actions like that he should lose his other apartment.

Why are our Courts coddling this criminal who ignores laws and laughs at the Court?

As I understand things with Rudy, he is owed money by Donald Trump for legal expenses that Donald has not paid him. Can Donald Trump be sued by Ruby/Shaye for the money owed to Rudy?
