Federal prosecutors executed a search warrant at the apartment of Rudy Giuliani, advancing its investigation into former President Trump’s personal lawyer and his dealings with Ukraine, The New York Times and other outlets reported Wednesday.
According to the Times, investigators seized Giuliani’s electronic devices, a significant development into the long-running investigation into whether the former New York mayor illegally lobbied the Trump administration on behalf of Ukrainian oligarchs.
Those same officials were aiding Giuliani in his search for dirt on Trump’s political rivals, including then-Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
The U.S. Attorney's office in Manhattan and the FBI declined to comment on the matter.
A spokesperson for Giuliani did not immediately respond.
Under Trump, Justice Department officials repeatedly sought to block the office from seeking a warrant for Giuliani’s phones.
The new warrant suggests federal prosecutors believe they have a compelling case. Prosecutors are only able to secure a warrant only if they can convince a judge that a search is likely to produce evidence of a crime.
