Former President Donald Trump has completed the booking process, according to jail records that indicate he has been released on bond.
Trump agreed to a $200,000 bond and other release conditions, including not using social media to intimidate co-defendants or witnesses in the case, which were previously negotiated by his attorneys.
The former president covered the cost of the bond by putting 10% toward it and he worked with a local Atlanta bonding company Foster Bail Bonds LLC, sources told CNN.
Fulton County marks the first case where Trump has been required to pay a cash bail. His odds of being released without a cash bail were slim in Georgia. Trump was already facing three other felony indictments when he was charged here.
Jail records show former President Donald Trump was placed under arrest and booked at the Fulton County jail on Thursday night.
Trump was at the jail for about 20 minutes.
Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat has said all 19 defendants in the Georgia election subversion case will go through the same process as any other criminal defendant in the county, which includes having fingerprints and mug shots taken.
Like several of his 18 co-defendants who have already surrendered at the jail, Trump’s processing was completed quickly because the former president and his lawyers negotiated his consent bond agreement ahead of Thursday's surrender.
