Despite Trump so far is not getting jail time but he was indicted and found guilty of crimes (in civil and criminal courts). And his co-conspirators have suffered various defeats at the hands of state and federal governments.

Rudy Giuliani was found guilty in a federal court, this gist of it here:

The former New York City mayor was in federal court in Manhattan on Tuesday to discuss his continuing failure to give up nearly $11 million worth of personal assets. The forfeiture was meant as a down payment on the $148 million Mr. Giuliani owes to two Georgia election workers for defaming them by claiming, without evidence, that they had helped to steal the 2020 presidential election.

The gist of this article (behind a paywall) is that Giuliani's attorneys asked to be released from the case for an "unspecified “professional ethics” concern" and he has a new attorney. The new attorney wants more time to prepare for turning over Rudy's assets to the two women who won the case against him. Why the delay? Rudy wants to attend Trump's inauguration events in D.C. in January. The judge says no.

There is stuff in a storage locker on Long Island that the storage facility owner isn't letting the representatives for the women into. And Rudy hasn't relinquished his car and his real estate. Part of Rudy's problem is that he has some stuff being disputed with an ex-wife.

The important feature of this discussion is that this is federal court, and chances are that the ethical problem his former attorneys ran up against is that Rudy is hoping that if he delays long enough that Trump will pardon him once in office and make a lot of this go away. So getting possession of these things now is prudent. Vital, even.
