Rudy Giuliani has agreed to stop spreading lies about two Georgia Election workers heâs been spouting since the 2020 presidential race.
Giuliani is former President Donald Trumpâs former personal lawyer and is now permanently prohibited from saying Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss âengaged in wrongdoing in connection with the 2020 presidential election,â the HuffPost reported.
A draft agreement was filed Tuesday.
When Trump lost the 2020 Election, Giuliani started falsely claiming Freeman and Moss âbrought in suitcases of illegal ballots while counting votes in Georgiaâs Fulton County to alter the result in favor ofâ Democratic candidate Joe Biden, who won the election, per the HuffPost.
Biden defeated Trump in Georgia by 11,779 votes.
Freeman and Moss sued Giuliani in December 2021, alleging how Giulianiâs statements about them opened them to be the target of âan immediate onslaught of violent and racist threats and harassment.â
Giuliani was found liable for defaming the two after Giuliani had conceded to spreading lies about them.
He was originally ordered to pay $148 million in damages, which was lowered by about $2 million.
Freeman and Moss, who are mother and daughter, sued Giuliani a second time after he continued to make false statements about them.
They asked for an injunction to permanently bar him from talking about them.
Freemanâs and Mossâ attorneys said that in Tuesdayâs agreement, if Giuliani violates the injunction he can be brought to court in Washington, D.C.
If this happens, Giuliani will not be able to hide behind his bankruptcy.
The agreement âends his efforts to profit off of lies about these two heroes of American democracy,â Michael Gottlieb, a lawyer for the women, said.
Ted Goodman, a spokesperson for Giuliani, said Giuliani will stop commenting on Freeman and Moss.
âHe will continue to comment on everything else surrounding the 2020 Election,â Goodman said in a statement.
Giuliani has also been suspended and removed from WABC radio after repeatedly violating a ban on spreading 2020 Election lies.
