Former President Donald Trump surrendered to authorities in Georgia on Thursday evening for his plot to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
His mugshot was taken at the Fulton County Jail where he was booked as Inmate No. P01135809. He left after 20 minutes and agreed to post a $200,000 bond.
The case against him includes 22 counts related to forgery of false documents and statements, eight counts related to soliciting or impersonating public officers, three related to influencing witnesses, three related to election fraud or defrauding the state, three relating to computer tampering, one related to racketeering, and one related to perjury.
He is the first president to be indicted and the Georgia case is the fourth of his indictments related to his scheme to overturn President Joe Biden’s victory in 2020.
