Rudy Giuliani 'has exposure as a potential co-conspirator': J6 committee’s top investigator
A former U.S. Attorney who served as the House Jan. 6 committee’s top investigator said Thursday that former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani could be facing serious legal jeopardy of his own.
Timothy Heaphy during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House with Nicolle Wallace” said that the former New York City mayor “has exposure as a potential co-conspirator” in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation over allegations of election interference.
“Rudy Giuliani has had exposure from the beginning,” Heaphy said, noting that “he was directly soliciting the submission of these fake electors, and continuing to make these public statements with no basis in fact or law.”
Heaphy’s assertion is supported by the account of former Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers, who said Wednesday during an appearance on CNN that Giuliani, among others in the Trump orbit, offered him “proof” of election fraud that in his estimation was no such thing.
Heaphy suggested that Giuliani’s submission of fake electors is the reason “his license to practice law has been removed.”
“Now,” Heaphy added, “I don't know if he's continuing to stick to that when he goes in front of the grand jury – he did stick to that when he testified before the select committee – or whether or not he has changed his tune and has worked out some sort of deal with the special counsel where he will admit that he had awareness that there was no basis in fact in law and continued nonetheless to perpetuate the fake collector scheme, and ultimately aided and abetted the attempt to obstruct the official proceeding."
He noted:
“That's that is a missing piece, what Mr. Giuliani's status is, but there's no question to call just based on the record, we know that he has exposure as a potential co-conspirator.”
