Giuliani Crash Injury And Dominion Defamation Settlement

Last year, Giuliani was seriously injured in a high-speed rear-end crash in New Hampshire.

He was taken to a trauma center, where he was diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebra and other injuries, including cuts, bruises and damage to his arm and leg.

Both sides agreed to dismiss all claims, with each covering its own legal costs and the settlement amount was not disclosed.
