he was a very intense character. if you violate the law, by insider trading, tax evasion, fraud, or bribery. or so-called white crime. then you will go to prison. kind of a crusader. which was clearly also kind of how he saw himself. with me now to discuss, is rebecca, the director of when truth is a true. the rudy giuliani story. i cannot wait to watch this. i am hooked. rudy giuliani had a gradual rise to stardom. but the fall was steep, and it was quick. so where exactly did it all go wrong? first of all, thank you so
