intimidate and harass these election workers and tried to get them then to change their story as passirt of a conduct. that s a piece that the jury can say, okay, that s a crime. reporter: freeman and moss later testified in front of the january 6th committee about vile, racist threats they received. this turned my life upside down. i don t want to go anywhere. i second guess everything that i do. it s affect my life in a major way. in every way. all because of lies. giuliani has conceded as part of a civil lawsuit that he made defamatory statements about the two election workers. nearly every other georgia election official who stood up to the lies received similar threats.
your family members. yeah. my wife mostly. and she got she got the more vile, you know, personal kind of stuff. state patrol and heightened security and bomb-sniffing dogs. there was a website that formed that put a picture of my house and my address and my name and my kids names. you should go to jail, you are judas, you re a traitor, you ve committed treason. reporter: the december 3rd hearing would bring even more chaos to the state in the aftermath of the election when a then little-known attorney appeared. what do you remember about john eastman s presentation that day? i thought it was ridiculous. these significant statutory violations are in my view more than enough he saw it as the duty of the legislature to step in and basically throw out the will of georgia voters and for the legislature to convene a special session and appoint their own republican alternate electors. i don t think it s just your authority to do that but quite
in particular, the villain really was the election workers in fulton county. there s more than ample evidence to conclude that this election was a sham. once that video was made public and misrepresented as evidence of fraud, two of the women counting ballots, ruby freeman and her daughter shay moss were docksed. their faces, names, addresses, phone numbers shared online. a motley crew emerged phoning freeman and showing up at her home steven lee, a pastor from suburb chicago, parked outside of freeman s house until she dialed 911. i m a pastor and working with folks who are trying to help ruby out. and also give some truth to what s going on. it would be nice if i could talk to her i don t trust nobody. so you don t want to talk to

the problem was is that the video had been selectively edited. they found their magical suitcase full of ballots. when i m looking at it i m like that s a ballot carrier. those are sealed ballot carriers, which is a normal thing you d have in elections. they intentionally misled the state senate in order to keep pushing this narrative and try to get the election thrown out. so he lied? yeah. i mean, they never backed off from it. reporter: the fbi and the department of justice also got involved in chasing the allegation. both came to the same conclusion as the secretary of state s office. my opinion then and my opinion now is that the election was not stolen by fraud. reporter: there was no illegal activity by the election workers. there has to be a villain or the enemy. and in this hearing in particular the villain really was the election workers in fulton county. there s more than ample evidence to conclude that this
