Prosecutors in Arizona report ongoing difficulties in locating Rudy Giuliani to serve him with an indictment related to his alleged involvement in a fake elector scheme aimed at overturning the 2020 election results. Despite extensive efforts over several weeks, Giuliani, former attorney to Donald Trump, remains elusive.
The Arizona Attorney General’s office, led by a Democrat, has successfully served indictments to all other defendants in the case, including Kelli Ward, chair of the Arizona Republican Party, and Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff under Trump. However, Giuliani has not yet been reached, complicating the legal proceedings.
An official from the Attorney General’s office disclosed to “The Washington Post” that multiple attempts have been made to serve Giuliani in New York City, but these efforts have been unsuccessful. The inability to locate Giuliani raises questions about his whereabouts and compliance with legal processes.
The indictment against Giuliani and others stems from their alleged roles in creating and promoting false elector certifications as part of an effort to overturn the legitimate 2020 election results in favor of Donald Trump. This scheme is part of a broader investigation into attempts to subvert the electoral process.
The situation underscores the challenges law enforcement faces in serving legal documents, particularly when high-profile figures are involved. It also highlights the ongoing legal fallout from the 2020 election and the actions of Trump’s legal team and supporters.
As the search for Giuliani continues, the Attorney General’s office remains committed to ensuring that all individuals involved in the alleged scheme are held accountable. The office has not specified the next steps but indicates that efforts to locate and serve Giuliani will persist.
