A covert warrant that Prosecution obtained for former Trump aide Rudy Giuliani’s Apple iCloud account in November 2019 and for a raid last month show they are treating him more like cartel lord or terrorist than a personal lawyer to former President Donald Trump, The Hill writes.
According to Giuliani’s attorneys, the raids on their client were unnecessary and basically represent an improper intrusion on private communications with the president because he said that he would cooperate and answer any except for privileged matters.
They believe prosecutors have chosen to treat a distinguished lawyer like Giuliani as if he was a terrorist in order to create maximum prejudicial coverage of both him and his client – the former US President.
These comments were sent last week in a letter to a Manhattan federal judge who is to decide whether a special master’s presence is necessary to protect attorney-client privilege during review of the evidence gathered in the raids on Giuliani.
They asked the judge to unseal affidavits that bolstered the Nov. 4, 2019 search warrant so they can expand their argument “that this unilateral, secret review was illegal” and that any evidence gathered from it should be suppressed.
