00:00 It's Benzinga and here's what's on the block.
00:02 Rudy Giuliani, the former lawyer of then President Donald Trump, conceded in a court filing that
00:06 he made false statements about two Georgia election workers who are suing him over baseless
00:11 claims of fraud.
00:12 Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Wondria Shamos, had been accused by Giuliani of committing
00:16 election fraud during the 2020 presidential election.
00:20 These claims were based on a heavily edited brief clip of security footage that circulated
00:24 online and was, I suppose, evidenced by Trump allies.
00:27 The two election workers stated that Giuliani's and Trump's allegations of election fraud
00:31 against them were false from the beginning and caused significant harm to their lives.
00:35 After a year-long investigation, Georgia's state election board cleared the election
00:39 workers, Freeman and Moss, of any wrongdoing, stating that the alleged election fraud claims
00:44 at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta were unsubstantiated and found to have no merit, before Giuliani's
00:49 court filing.
