Rudy Giuliani’s daughter Caroline was busted for shoplifting today at an Upper East Side beauty and skin care shop, police sources said. The 20-year-old was arrested at a Sephora store near the E. 86th Street home she shares with her mother, Donna Hanover, the television personality and former city first lady, before her bitter split from the tough-on-crime mayor.

On her profile in Facebook, the popular online social networking site,...

In another reminder of Rudy's strained relationship with his children, Slate reports today that Caroline Giuliani, the former mayor's college freshman daughter, is supporting Obama's candidacy. Asked about the disclosure on the campaign trail today in Clear Lake, Iowa, Giuliani dodged. "I have great respect for her, and I’m really proud of her," Giuliani said.
