Former US President Donald Trump surrendered Thursday on charges of illegally conspiring to nullify the 2020 election in Georgia, a 20-minute quick booking that resulted in a historic first: a photo of a former US president. He was released on $200,000 bond and returned to the airport for his flight back to New Jersey, giving a thumbs up through the window of his SUV as his motorcade drove off. Unrepentant but subdued following his brief visit to prison, he insisted, as he did on several occasions, that he “did nothing wrong” and called the case accusing him of subverting the results of the “parody of justice” elections. “If you contest an election, you should be able to contest an election,” he told reporters on the airport tarmac before boarding his plane.
The Fulton County prosecution is the fourth criminal case once morest Trump since March, when he became the first former president in US history to be charged. Since then, he has faced federal charges in Florida and Washington, and this month he was charged in Atlanta along with 18 others – including his ex-chief of staff Mark Meadows and the former mayor. of New York Rudy Giuliani – under a racketeering law normally associated with gang members and organized crime. Giuliani visited on Wednesday and posed for a photo ID. Meadows, who had sought to avoid having to surrender while seeking to take the case to federal court, surrendered on Thursday. Bail was set at $100,000.
