Rudy Giuliani Missing? Former New York City Mayor Nowhere To Be Found as Arizona Prosecutors Look For Him

Arizona state prosecutors are looking for former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani after a grand jury indicted him for election fraud. However, there is one problem; they cannot find him.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has sent multiple prosecutors and investigators to find Giuliani and serve him a summons that he has been formally charged criminally and must appear before a judge on May 21. However, they cannot seem to find one of the most recognizable figures in the United States.

Richie Taylor, a spokesperson for the Arizona AG, told the Washington Post that their agents even traveled to New York City to try and find him. They even found his New York residence but were unable to serve him the court summons.

Arizona prosecutors and investigators made multiple attempts to contact Giuliani by calling various phone numbers for him. However, the spokesperson admitted that "none of them were successful."

"We were not granted access," Taylor said.

The Arizona election fraud case mirrors the Georgia case, except former President Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator. The former New York City mayor, once regarded as one of the United States's most influential politicians, is one of the 17 co-conspirators indicted for the Arizona election case.

Just like in Georgia, he and other allies, such as former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, allegedly hatched a scheme to steal the election for the former president. Other co-conspirators include Trump lawyers John Eastman and Christina Bobb, top Trump campaign adviser Boris Epshteyn, and 11 Arizona Republican Party officials who served as Donald Trump's fake electors in the state.

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani Must Adhere to Arizona Summons

After it became apparent that Donald Trump had lost the election, Giuliani personally traveled to Arizona, where he spoke to lawmakers and claimed that large numbers of ballots had been cast in the names of deceased voters and undocumented immigrants. However, he did not have any evidence of such happening.

As former US attorney Paul Charlton said, despite his efforts to avoid the summons to Arizona, Giuliani must still appear in court on the listed date.

"You can think of a summons to appear as a courtesy by the prosecutors-it is an invitation to appear," he told the Daily KOS. "You can be held in contempt if you are served and fail to appear. But the alternative for prosecutors is to issue an arrest warrant, and that is, of course, a much more compelling vehicle."

It was noted that should an arrest warrant be issued against Giuliani, even a doorman, which prevented the prosecutors from serving him the papers, cannot stop it.

Rudy Giuliani Claims Bankruptcy in Another Court

Meanwhile, as Arizona lawyers are trying to serve the former mayor, he is also facing a lawsuit from Georgia poll workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea "Shaye" Moss. Because of this, Giuliani declared bankruptcy and is now in bankruptcy court where the judge is not pleased with him at all.

Moss and Freeman's lawyer told the judge that the former mayor has not done anything to fix his financial situation, and the judge actually said. "I agree with you, and I am disturbed about the status of this case."
