Is Caroline Giuliani A Victim Of Rudy Giuliani’s Privacy?
RUDY Giuliani seems to have leant from past errors as he addresses the arrest of his daughter, Caroline Giuliani, 20, for shoplifting.
As we reported, Caroline is accused of stealing a small quantity of make-up from a Sephora store in New York.
She will appear before the Manhattan Criminal Court on Aug. 31.
So. What does daddy, the former Presidential candidate have to say? The New York Post reports:
The suspect’s famous father had no comment on Caroline’s arrest — or her treatment.
“It’s a private matter,” the ex-mayor said as he left his Upper East Side apartment, “and it’s going to stay that way.”
Well, a “no comment” is still a comment. He’s opened the door. But will he speak again on the matter? Maybe. Deceiver spots a time when Giuliani was not so private with his private life.
In 2007, Rudy announced his separation from Donna Hanover, the mother of his two children, at a press conference. As Stacey Schneider wrote:
The divorce was a vicious, go-for-the-jugular, corrosive slugfest, with Rudy seemingly pulling the sharpest punches of the pair. His ongoing public display of his mistress’s affections was certainly unbecoming of an elected official. But watching an uncaring father of two young children consistently display his contempt for his own family on the television news was both shocking and heartbreaking.
Perhaps he’s learnt from that experience? Or maybe when you’re no longer looking to be the leader of the Free World, and your personal ambition has been stymied, privacy is all you have left…
Those celebrity shoplifters:

Richard Madeley In 1994, Madeley was charged with shoplifting champagne from Tesco, and he says this was a typical example of his overconfidence. The family were going away that day, they had 1,001 things to do, and he was convinced he could squeeze the shopping in, too. In short, he paid for the food in the trolley, forgot to pay for the champagne. “I was just not concentrating. I put the food through the till, I forgot to take the champagne out. It was, I can handle anything, I can juggle eight balls in the air, and actually I came a horrible cropper. I can joke about it now.” He was eventually cleared in the crown court. “But that year was horrible. The publicity was mortifying. If I’d been accused of robbing a bank, at least it’s got a bit of glamour to it, but fucking shoplifting… It’s like wanking in a public toilet. Just horrible.”
