Donald Trump has surrendered at the Fulton County jail in Atlanta to be booked on more than a dozen charges stemming from his efforts to reverse Georgia’s 2020 election results.
Jail records show former President Donald Trump was placed under arrest and booked at the Fulton County jail on Thursday night.
The jail record shows that Trump is 6 foot 3 inches tall and weighs 215 pounds. He is listed as having blue eyes and blonde or strawberry hair.
He was at the jail for about 20 minutes.
Trump agreed earlier this week to a $200,000 bond and other release conditions, including not using social media to target the co-defendants and witnesses in the case.
Protesters at the jail could be heard yelling against District Attorney Fani Willis, who charged Trump and 18 others in the election subversion case.
“Lock Fani up!” the former president's supporters chanted.
His surrender in Georgia marks the fourth time this year the former president has turned himself in to local or federal officials after criminal charges were brought against him – episodes that had never been seen in the US before 2023.
In April, the former president was booked in New York on state charges related to a hush money scheme. In June, he surrendered at a Miami federal courthouse to face charges in special counsel Jack Smith’s probe into the mishandling of classified documents.
And earlier this month, Trump was placed under arrest in Washington, DC, and arraigned on charges brought by Smith in his investigation into attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
All of those cases could come to a head next year at the same time that Trump is running for president.
