Two Georgia election workers who were defamed by Rudy Giuliani were awarded $148 million in emotional and punitive damages by a Washington, D.C., jury on Friday after being vilified and accused of faking election results.
Ruby Freeman and her daughter Wandrea Shaye Moss had asked for $24 million each. They testified in court how their lives were upended and their reputations destroyed after Giuliani claimed they had engaged in election fraud to give President Joe Biden the edge in Georgia over former President Donald Trump during the 2020 election.
A defiant Giuliani told reporters outside the courtroom, "I don't regret a damn thing!"
