Giuliani Sat for Voluntary Interview in Jan. 6 Investigation Rudolph W. Giuliani, who served as former President Donald J. Trump’s personal lawyer, was interviewed last week by federal prosecutors investigating Mr. Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election, people familiar with the matter said. The voluntary interview, which took place under what is known as a proffer agreement, was a significant development in the election interference investigation led by Jack Smith, the special counsel, and the latest indication that Mr. Smith and his team are actively seeking witnesses who might cooperate in the case. A proffer agreement is an understanding between prosecutors and people who are subjects of criminal investigations that can precede a formal cooperation deal. The subjects agree to provide useful information to the government, sometimes to tell their side of events, to stave off potential charges or to avoid testifying under subpoena before a grand jury. In exchange, prosecutors agree not to use those statements against them in future criminal proceedings unless it is determined they were lying. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/28/us/politics/giuliani-jan-6-investigation.html The article goes on to report the interview was focused on "the former president’s efforts to remain in power after his 2020 election loss." Including the fake elector scheme and the Willard Hotel meeting between Rudy, Eastman, Bannon, and current Trump adviser Boris Epshteyn. When you are a ball of slimy slime, like Rudy, having worked for a ball of slimy slime, like Trump, looking at potential criminal prosecution.........a position so many Trump associates find themselves in..........can cause one to consider becoming what Don refers to as a snitch. It is disappointing to think Rudy will escape accountability for his role in the failed coup and Big Lie but if that's what it takes to put Individual 1 behind bars where he belongs.......so be it.
rudy might roll over to avoid jail time, but i don't think this gets him out of dominion vs rudy and the smartmatic suit.
That sounds correct. This has to do with his legal exposure in the illegal elector plot. It also may be a way to signal to Fani Willis he is willing to cooperate with her case since we know the grand jury was looking at criminal behavior of those involved other than Don.
