Former New York City mayor and former Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani has finally been processed in Phoenix over his involvement in the Arizona fake electors case. He posted a bond worth $10,000, and his mugshot was taken. The mugshot has now been released.

Of the 11 defendants in the case, which include the Arizona fake electors and several of Donald Trump's lawyers, only the former New York City mayor had been ordered to post bond. He previously pleaded not guilty to nine felony charges, including conspiracy, forgery, and fraud.

In that hearing on May 21, where the former Republican mayor and presidential candidate appeared remotely, Giuliani was ordered to post a secured appearance bond of $10,000. He was also given a month to physically appear in Arizona for booking procedures, which he now did.

Arizona prosecutors had a hard time finding Giuliani prior to his court appearance in Phoenix, with the former mayor not being in his New York home when prosecutors were looking for him. He was finally found during his birthday party in Florida, where he was handed his court summons after taunting Arizona prosecutors in a livestream.

"Mayor Rudy Giuliani - the most effective federal prosecutor in US history - will be fully vindicated," Giuliani spokesperson Ted Goodman told AZ Family in a statement. "This is yet another example of partisan actors weaponizing the criminal justice system to interfere with the 2024 presidential election through outlandish charges against President Trump and anyone willing to take on the permanent Washington political class."

The former mayor and other Trump officials are accused of hatching a plot to overturn the results of the 2020 elections, in which Biden won the state. Giuliani was part of the Trump campaign's spearheading into the state, a key swing state in 2020, to help change the election results.

What Was the Donald Trump Fake Electors Scheme in Arizona About?

Giuliani's legal processing came after former Trump presidential chief of staff Mark Meadows and Trump 2020 Election Day operations director Michael Roman appeared in a Phoenix court on Friday over the Arizona fake electors scheme. They both pleaded not guilty.

Rudy Giuliani and Mark Meadows, as well as the other co-defendants, conspired to submit names of fake electors from Arizona and other states to Congress. This would have overturned the election results but it ultimately failed thanks to then-Vice President Mike Pence choosing to go with the Constitution rather than go with his running mate's fraudulent scheme.

Rudy Giuliani Speaks Out After Arizona Court Appearance

Soon after he was released after posting bail and having his mugshot taken, Rud Giuliani spoke with local Phoenix NBC affiliate, 12news. There, he told the outlet that he did not regret what he did in Arizona.

"Oh my goodness. No," he said when asked about whether he regrets being part of the plot to steal the election in Arizona. "I'm very, very proud of it."

He then doubled down on his debunked election claims, saying, "because there was a substantial amount of vote fraud that went on here. That was covered up. Probably one of the biggest conspiracies in American history. And I think that's coming out over and over again. They just discovered 275,000 missing ballots in Georgia. I think you're gonna find that just like Russian collusion was a hoax, this election was a hoax."

Various court cases and recounts have already proven his statements false, with Giuliani failing to give substantial evidence of voter fraud in several of these cases.
