It’s the fourth time in six months Donald Trump has surrendered to face criminal charges, but the first time getting booked in a jail.
The case against him in Georgia is the first time authorities are requiring Trump to be booked inside a jail and stand for a mug shot. Trump’s previous appearances were in courthouses where judges agreed to waive his need to be weighed and have his picture taken. In Atlanta, Trump agreed to pay the required $200,000 bond and other conditions of his release, including pledging to not intimidate any witnesses or co-defendants online.
Trump has repeatedly promoted his multiple criminal indictments in fundraising pleas for his 2024 presidential campaign, raising millions of dollars off being caught in the grinding wheels of the American judicial system. Trump has painted the charges as an orchestrated effort by Democrats to stop him from winning back the White House, claiming that he’s being persecuted in a broader effort to silence his supporters.
from mid-August showed that 52% of registered Republicans preferred Trump as their candidate, giving him a 40-point lead over the runner up in the polling, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis., the Fulton County District Attorney, began investigating Trump in early 2021 after a recording was released of the former President asking Georgia’s Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” 11,780 votes—one more than the margin of his loss in the decisive swing state.
Trump was charged with 13 counts in the case, including violating state racketeering laws and soliciting a public official to violate his oath of office, conspiring to commit forgery in the first degree, conspiring to file false documents, and making false statements.
