Judicial Watch Seeks To Unseal Warrants Behind Giuliani's 2021 Raid
The Sept. 1 filing targets the Manhattan search that seized Giuliani's phone, built on a warrant reaching back to a 2019 iCloud order.
- Case No. 21-mc-00425 sits before Judge J. Paul Oetken in Manhattan federal court.
- Agents seized Giuliani's cellphone and devices around 6 a.m. on April 28, 2021.
- A warrant dated November 4, 2019 ordered Apple to hand over his iCloud account.
Why it matters: A warrant sealed for five years answers to no one until a private citizen pays to pry it open.
