Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor who went on to serve as Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, has just turned himself in. His booking sheet, on the Fulton County Sherriff’s website, describes him as a white male, who is 5 ft 9 inches tall with “grey or partially grey brown” hair. There are 13 offences listed underneath his name, including conspiracy to commit filing false documents and the solicitation of violation of oath of office by a public officer. The bail bond for Rudy Giuliani has been set at $150,000 - the second highest sum in this case, after the $200,000 set for Donald Trump himself.
Jenna Ellis, a former Trump campaign lawyer who was indicted in the Georgia election case, has also turned herself in to the Fulton County jail in Atlanta. Ellis has recently been critical of Donald Trump for not paying his co-defendants’ legal fees.
She wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, “I was reliably informed Trump isn’t funding any of us who are indicted”.
Will she flip?
Sidney Powell turns herself in. She is alleged to have been involved with an illegal breach of election data in Coffee County, Georgia, in an attempt to find evidence of voter fraud.
More mugshots released by Fulton County
Ray Smith, a local attorney hired by former President Donald Trump to be his local attorney of record.
Kenneth Chesebro, an attorney accused of helping devise a fake elector scheme outlined in the indictment.
Cathy Latham, a former leader of the Republican Party in Georgia’s Coffee County
David Shafer, the former chairman of the Georgia Republican Party accused of being party of the fake elector scheme
Presumably, Trump, too, will have a mugshot taken - perhaps one like this, which he is known to dislike:
The former president has until now been spared a booking photo and having to interact with other criminal defendants. But Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat has said the department’s “normal practices” will be followed when processing Mr Trump.
So far, six of his alleged co-conspirators have already been booked into the Fulton County Jail, which is notorious for hazardous conditions that some inmates endure for months. At the jail, defendants typically undergo a series of procedures, including a medical screening, fingerprinting and a warrants check. Mr Trump may also be subjected to his first mugshot, as the county’s normal steps include photographing all its defendants.
“The Fulton County Jail, amongst jails, is a very disturbingly dysfunctional place,” said Rachel Kaufman, an attorney in Atlanta. Mr Trump and his 18 co-defendants “are going to witness some level of that dysfunction” when processed, she said. “He’s not going to feel the full force of what an average person experiences in the Fulton County Jail when they’ve been charged with several felonies”.
