Over 3,000 of Giuliani's communications released to prosecutors following FBI seizure

More than 3,000 of Rudy Giuliani's communications were released to prosecutors on Wednesday after a review of 18 devices that the FBI seized from the former Trump lawyer's possession last April.

The Washington Post reported that former federal judge Barbara S. Jones, who was chosen to lead a privilege review of Giuliani's communications, stated that there were 25,000 messages on a cellphone that dated back to 2018.

The former NYC mayor asserted attorney-client privilege over 96 items, 40 of which were granted by Jones, the Post reported. The other 56 items were released to prosecutors.

"Totally expected and in fact we want the prosecutors to see the material as it makes our consistent point that he did not do anything illegal," Giuliani's attorney, Robert Costello, told The Hill.

essentially…”they wouldn’t dare” ?

I guess that’s why he kept all those phones?

"They invaded my iCloud, and took documents that were priveleged. The Justice Department spied on me. We might as well be in East Berlin before the wall was up," Giuliani said.

He is now the second Trump lawyer to have had his properties raided. The FBI executed search warrants on Trump's former fixer and attorney, Michael Cohen, in 2018, and Cohen later pleaded guilty to several felonies including campaign finance violations, tax evasion, and lying to Congress.
