After their $148 million judgment against Rudy Giuliani, former election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss have again sued him to bar him from further defaming them.
On the heels of winning a $148 million defamation judgment Friday against Rudy Giuliani, former Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss have again sued the former New York City mayor seeking to "permanent bar" him from making additional defamatory comments about them.
Following a week-long trial, a federal jury last week ordered Giuliani to pay nearly $150 million to the mother and daughter for defaming them with false accusations that they committed election fraud while counting ballots in Georgia's Fulton County on Election Day in 2020.
In a 134-page complaint filed Monday, attorneys for the two women wrote that Giuliani "continues to spread the very same lies for which he has already been held liable," citing comments made last week to ABC News' Terry Moran outside of court, in which Giuliani insisted that Freeman and Moss were "changing votes."
The two women asked the court to prevent Giuliani from "making or publishing ... further statements repeating any and all false claims that plaintiffs engaged in election fraud, illegal activity, or misconduct of any kind during or related to the 2020 presidential election."
