Extra Time: Breaking down Trump's 4th indictment, Giuliani's involvement
In this edition of 'Eyewitness News Extra Time,' we break down the latest indictment against Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani's involvement.
Trump and 18 others were charged with a number of crimes that focused on overturning the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
There are two well-known New Yorkers listed on the indictment: Trump himself and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
On his daily WABC AM radio show Tuesday afternoon, Giuliani said Trump was "indicted for his first amendment rights." Giuliani said prosecutors indicted him for being Trump's lawyer.
He went on to attack the validity of the case and the qualifications of the Fulton County prosecutor.
We dig deeper into the rise and fall of Giuliani, and the latest round of Trump-related indictments with the help of former Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Jeremy Saland.
Here are the other major headlines from Tuesday's show:
