Atlanta: Former U.S. President Donald Trump was arrested at a Georgia jail on August 24 on racketeering and conspiracy charges for trying to overturn the 2020 election results in the southern State.<\/span><\/p>\n During a brief session lasting less than 30 minutes, the 77-year-old Mr. Trump was booked on 13 charges at Atlanta\u2019s Fulton County Jail, according to records published by the sheriff\u2019s office.<\/p>\n Mr. Trump\u2019s height was listed by the jail as six foot three inches (1.9 meters), his weight as 215 pounds (97 kilograms) and his hair color as \u201cBlond or Strawberry.\u201d<\/p>\n Trump left Atlanta jail roughly 20 minutes after surrendering, reported AP. He was released on $200,000 bond and headed back to the airport for his return flight home to New Jersey.<\/p>\n Mr. Trump arrived in Georgia on August 24 evening to surrender on charges that he illegally schemed to overturn the 2020 election in that State, a county jail booking that yielded a historic first: a mug shot of a former American President.<\/p>\n Trump\u2019s surrender, coming amid an abrupt shake-up of his legal team, follows the presidential debate in Milwaukee the night before featuring his leading rivals for the 2024 Republican nomination \u2014 a contest in which he remains the leading candidate despite broad legal troubles. His presence in Georgia, though likely brief, is swiping the spotlight anew from his opponents after the debate in which they sought to seize on his absence to elevate their own presidential prospects.<\/p>\n Mr. Trump landed in Atlanta shortly after 7 p.m. and was to be driven, through the city\u2019s rush-hour traffic, to jail for the booking process. Wearing his signature white shirt and red tie, he offered a wave and thumbs up as he descended the steps of his private plane.<\/p>\n The Fulton County prosecution is the fourth criminal case against Mr. Trump since March when he became the first former President in U.S. history to be indicted. Since then, he\u2019s faced federal charges in Florida and Washington, and this month he was indicted in Atlanta with 18 others \u2014 including his ex-chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani \u2014 under a racketeering statute normally associated with gang members and organized crime.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n [ad_2] [ad_1] Atlanta: Former U.S. President Donald Trump was arrested at a Georgia jail on August 24 on racketeering and conspiracy charges for trying to overturn the 2020 election results in the southern State.
