Is Caroline Giuliani A Victim Of Rudy Giuliani’s Privacy?

by | 11th, August 2010

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:

Winona Ryder In 2001, Winona Ryder starred on a security video showing her flitting around Saks Fifth Avenue in Wilshire Boulevard. “The best beloved of all things in my sight is justice,” says the sign on the inside of the main Beverly Hills court building, but it has been hard to keep sight of it over the last couple of weeks. Ryder was arrested … and accused of having stolen 20 items worth about $10,000 from the store. She was convicted of grand theft and vandalism… The first witness suggested that Ryder had told him that she was just rehearsing, on a director’s advice, for the part of a shoplifter in a film. This prompted one commentator, Steve Lopez, to write that “we should count our lucky stars Ryder doesn’t play a serial killer in this movie she’s preparing for, whatever it might be”.
