Donald Trump Indictment: Ex-POTUS Agrees to $200,000 Bond Before Turning Himself In

The bail for Donald Trump's Georgia indictment, his fourth in total, has been set, and he has agreed to it. Now, the former president has announced when he will turn himself in to face justice.

According to CNN, Trump has agreed to his bail being set at a $200,000 bond and other release conditions. Now, he is planning to turn himself in and get processed at the Fulton County jail on Thursday. His lawyers, Jennifer Little, Drew Findling, and Marissa Goldberg, met with the district attorney's office on Monday to discuss the bond details and agreed on the bond.

Reports indicate that Trump's release conditions that were outlined in his bond order were "more extensive than those laid out in the others approved earlier Monday in the case." As Latin Post previously reported, the sheriff of Fulton County, Georgia has already vowed that Trump will be treated like any other suspect and will be fingerprinted and get his mugshot taken.

In the bond order, Trump, who has a history of attacking judges, opposing counsel, and opponents, is banned from using social media to target his 18 codefendants in the case. He is also not allowed to do the same for witnesses and 30 unindicted co-conspirators.

"The Defendant shall perform no act to intimidate any person known to him or her to be a codefendant or witness in this case or to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice," stated the order, which was signed by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee.

The order then specifically addressed Trump's tendencies, stating, "The above shall include, but are not limited to, posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media."

Donald Trump and Allies Doubling Down on Election Lies After Georgia Indictment

Despite his election lies leading to two of his four indictments, Donald Trump has not slowed down on his claims that there was voter fraud in 2020 and that he was the actual winner.

Just two days after his Georgia indictment, one of his closest allies, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, was still promoting the Big Lie at an event in Missouri, even showing off a video that claimed there was election fraud against Trump.

Various recounts funded by Trump himself have shown that there were no massive amounts of voter fraud as he claimed. Court cases in the various battleground states, including Georgia, have also debunked many of his claims.

According to the Associated Press. Lindell showed a video of poll worker Ruby Freeman pulling out a standard government container full of real ballots that had to be counted. The video claimed this was fraud, but evidence has shown that she was just doing her job. Freeman was harassed by allies of Trump and coerced into admitting that she was committing voter fraud. She has since testified that she was coerced into admitting.

Atlanta, Georgia Enjoying Hosting Donald Trump Indictment

Fulton County is where Atlanta is located. This is where the Georgia grand jury indicted Trump, and this is where he will be tried. In a city where the Civil Rights movement has its roots, it is relishing in the Trump indictment.

Politico spoke with several residents, and many of them are enjoying the possibility that their city might be where Trump might finally go down. "We're getting a kick out of Trump getting booked at the Rice Street Jail," Eddie Jewell, a 54-year-old Uber driver, told Politico. "We're loving it," he added.
