Donald Trump Georgia Arrest: All 19 Co-Defendants Have Surrendered and Had Their Mugshots Taken
All 19 suspects in the Donald Trump Georgia election meddling case have given themselves up and have been booked at the Fulton County Jail. All of them, including the former president himself, have had their mugshots taken, were fingerprinted, and released after posting bail, per Georgia law.
According to PBS, only co-defendant and Black Voices for Trump leader Harrison William Prescott Floyd remained in jail after he failed to negotiate a bond ahead of time. He turned himself in last Thursday and is accused of harassing a Fulton County election worker whom Trump accused of cheating in the election but was later proven innocent.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee is now expected to set arraignments for each of the 19 defendants in the coming weeks. This means that they would have to appear in court and enter a plea of guilty or not guilty.
As Latin Post previously reported, the co-defendants include former President Donald Trump, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, and Trump Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark. Also charged are Trump attorneys Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis, and Kenneth Chesebro.
Former Georgia Republican Party chairman David Shafer, state Senator Shawn Still, and former Coffee County Republican Party chief Cathy Latham have also been charged, along with former Kanye West publicist Trevian Kutti and Harrison William Prescott Floyd. The latter two led the efforts to intimidate poll worker Ruby Freeman and coerced her into falsely admitting that she helped cheat in the elections.

Donald Trump Arrest Turns Republican Rivals Into a Sideshow
A Republican debate just happened but that has since been drowned out by Donald Trump's most recent arrest, with his mugshot now going viral. While accomplished politicians in their own right, the other Republican candidates, including Trump's former VP Mike Pence, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have become mere sideshows as Trump basks in the limelight of his arrest.
The Guardian pointed out that the news channels in the US were not doing post-debate analysis, as they normally would. Instead, they were talking about Trump's arrest and getting his mugshot taken for the first time, becoming the first former president to get a mugshot taken.
The Trump arrest in Georgia received wall-to-wall coverage, which the first Republican debate did not enjoy. It was described as "yet another example of the former president's unique ability to suck up all available media oxygen, making it nearly impossible for his opponents' message to break through to voters."
