Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York and one-time attorney to former President Donald Trump, has been ordered to pay nearly $150 million in damages to former Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whom he defamed following the 2020 presidential election. However, the question remains whether Freeman and Moss will actually receive any of that money.
The Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) had removed walk-on girls from its events in January 2018, a decision met with backlash from fans and players. Five-time darting world champion Raymond van Barneveld was among the players who petitioned for the return of walk-on girls, and the debate continues even as the 2024 PDC World Championship unfolds without their presence. Former walk-on girl Charlotte Wood expressed that top darts stars don’t understand the rationale behind their removal and emphasized the financial impact on models like her.
In the boxing world, YouTuber Jake Paul marked the beginning of Act 2 in his boxing career with a first-round knockout victory over Andre August. Paul, now taking a more serious approach to boxing, aims to follow the traditional route to become a world champion. Despite skepticism within the boxing industry, Paul is determined to prove himself, acknowledging the need for experience and growth as a fighter.
Meanwhile, Rudy Giuliani faces challenges related to the $150 million damages he has been ordered to pay. Giuliani plans to appeal the verdict, and questions arise about his financial capability to cover such a substantial sum. Attorneys for Freeman and Moss are exploring options to ensure their clients receive the awarded damages, considering Giuliani’s financial situation. The former mayor’s assets, net worth, and the possibility of declaring bankruptcy remain uncertain factors in this legal saga.
As Giuliani plans his appeal, the defamation case serves as a precedent in high-profile cases. While the likelihood of him paying the entire judgment is low, the verdict sends a message and sets a precedent for similar defamation cases. Giuliani, undeterred by the staggering amount, maintains the defamatory comments against Moss and Freeman, despite offering no evidence to support his claims. The legal battle continues as both parties navigate the complex terrain of court decisions, financial implications, and the pursuit of justice. Source thedailycourierng news
