Then-President Donald Trump invoked Ruby Freeman's name more than a dozen times in his infamous phone call to Georgia officials on Jan. 2, 2021, when Trump implored Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to "find" enough votes to win him the state.

After an audio recording of the call was later made public, Freeman described hearing her name come out of the mouth of the "most powerful person on Earth," as her attorney characterized Trump.

"Where's Ruby?" Trump could be heard asking Raffensperger, referring to an expression that was then trending online.

"I just felt like, 'Really?'" Freeman testified. "The president, talking about me? Me? How mean, how evil."

"I just was devastated," she said. "It made me feel like, you don't care that I'm a real person."

Jurors were shown a smattering of the racially charged threats Ruby Freeman received after video of her and her daughter counting ballots at State Farm Arena on election night circulated online.

The emails flooded her inbox on the night of Dec. 3, 2020, with several invoking lynching and references to the Ku Klux Klan.

One email, from an account called Grand Wizard with the email name "kkk" said, "Safest place for you right now is in prison. Or you will swing from the trees."

Another suggested the government hang her and her daughter from the "Capitol dome," saying, "I pray that I will be sitting close enough to hear your necks snap!"

Several of the messages accused her of being a traitor or "SCUM."

"I received so many on my phone that at one point my phone crashed," Freeman testified. "I felt horrible. I felt terrorized. I was scared … people are coming to kill me. They have my address, they have my phone number, they know my name."

Freeman testified that two days later, on Dec. 5, 2020, people began to show up at her house and she was forced to call the authorities.

While on the phone with police, Freeman said people were "banging" on her door.

"Not only am I getting phone calls and emails and stuff, now you're actually coming to the house," Freeman testified. "I was scared."

When Rudy Giuliani accused Ruby Freeman of "surreptitiously" passing her daughter a USB drive while the two were counting ballots on Election Day at State Farm Arena -- a central tenet of his false claims about the two women -- what he actually saw, according to Freeman, was something far less sinister: a ginger mint.

As Freeman took the stand, her attorney entered a ginger mint into evidence -- and Freeman passed the judge a ginger mint, too.

"I'm going to use this," Judge Beryl Howell said.

Freeman explained that she always has the candies with her. She passes them out to clients of her clothing boutique and those in need.

"I felt that it was healthy," she testified.

Freeman, who always went by "Lady Ruby," said she can no longer use her nickname publicly or in business.

"I can't use my name anymore, so I'm not Lady Ruby," she said as her voice cracked. "Sometimes I don't know who I am."

Ruby Freeman, the mother of Shaye Moss and her former co-worker in the Fulton County elections office, has taken the witness stand.

Freeman introduced herself to the jury as "Lady Ruby" as questioning got underway.

Giuliani's unfounded claims about the two women prompted a deluge of threats that ultimately drove Freeman from her suburban Atlanta home, she told ABC News' Terry Moran in an exclusive interview last year.

Lawyers for Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman said they may rest their case today.

The attorneys expect Freeman to take the stand this afternoon following Dr. Ashlee Humphreys, an expert who will testify about the reach of Rudy Giuliani's statements and the reputational impact of those statements on Freeman and Moss.

Before the jury was seated, Giuliani was asked by Judge Beryl Howell to explain remarks he made after court and online Tuesday night, after she admonished him earlier Tuesday about comments he made on Monday.

"I did," Giuliani said about making Tuesday's remarks, "but I don't think they violated the order. If I did, it was accidental."

"I will not do it in the future," he said.

In a video streamed Tuesday night on X, formerly Twitter, Giuliani said, "They're seeking $40 million. Oh yeah. They're seeking $40 million for the damage that I allegedly did to them. One of them did testify that she has no money, they do have an endless number of lawyers in the courtroom, however, for people that don't have any money."
