Former US President Donald Trump has said that he will surrender himself to face trial in the election sabotage case. Trump announced that he will turn himself in at the Atlanta jail tomorrow. Trump’s announcement that he would surrender came following he agreed to bond and release conditions during negotiations with the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office. But no mention is made of the time of surrender. The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office said the area around Rice Street Jail will be on lockdown when Trump surrenders. In the 98-page indictment, Trump and 18 other people are charged with 41 criminal counts in connection with attempts to subvert the 2020 election. Georgia authorities are also investigating threats once morest grand juries. The court has ordered a bond of 2,00,000 dollars and no threat through social media for the crime of trying to sabotage the election.
The bond, signed by Trump’s attorneys and Fulton District Attorney Fannie Willis, included release clauses including restrictions on witness intimidation and obstruction of justice. The fines were increased due to violations of the Georgia Ricoh Act. Trump is also required not to communicate directly or indirectly with any person known to him regarding the facts of the case except through his attorney.
The Fulton County District Attorney has set a deadline of noon this month for Trump and his 18 co-defendants to appear. Prosecutors in the case have proposed that the trial begin on March 4. Meanwhile, Trump is trying to prolong the trial. The indictment once morest Trump and 18 aides was filed last week. Trump has pleaded not guilty to three 91-count indictments in a Georgia court. Trump has been accused of subverting the 2020 election, keeping confidential information, and paying money to a porn star in the 2016 election. Former New York mayor and Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani is among the defendants in the election tampering case.
