It has been noted that a new lawsuit alleges that Rudy Giuliani offered to sell presidential pardons for $2 million each, saying he would split the profits between himself and former President Donald Trump.
Former Giuliani associate Noelle Dunphy on Monday filed a $10 million suit that claims she suffered repeated sexual abuse and another mistreatment at the hands of Giuliani, Trump’s former personal lawyer, while she was purportedly employed by him from January 2019 to January 2021.
It is noted that Dunphy claims that Giuliani, who famously served as mayor of New York City from 1994 to 2001, boasted that he was able to “break the law” because he had “immunity” due to his association with Trump.
He allegedly asked Dunphy to refer people to him who would be able to pay for presidential pardons outside “the normal channels.”
“[Giuliani] asked Ms. Dunphy if she knew anyone in need of a pardon, telling her that he was selling pardons for $2 million, which he and President Trump would split,” the suit states.
“He told Ms. Dunphy that she could refer individuals seeking pardons to him, so long as they did not go through ‘the normal channels’ of the Office of the Pardon Attorney, because correspondence going to that office would be subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act,” the lawsuit continues.
Giuliani adviser Ted Goodman said in a statement to Newsweek that “Mayor Rudy Giuliani unequiviocally denies the allegations raised by Ms. Dunphy,” while saying that an ex-partner accused Dunphy of being an “escort” who exploits wealthy men.
