WASHINGTON (AP) — A Georgia election worker has testified that she feared for her life as she received a barrage of threatening and racist messages fueled by Rudy Giuliani’s false claims that she and her mother had rigged the 2020 election results in the state. In Giuliani’s defamation trial, Wandrea “Shaye” Moss took the witness stand on Tuesday as her lawyers showed a few of the messages that accused her of treason, called her a thug and used a racist slur. She recounted changing her appearance to try to hide as Giuliani and other allies of former President Donald Trump seized onto surveillance footage to falsely accuse her and her mother, Ruby Freeman, of committing voter fraud.
