While being processed for booking in Georgia\u2019s Fulton County Jail last night, Trump was read his rights and had his mugshot taken. He was also fingerprinted and had his height and weight recorded. Trump was later released on a $200,000 bond. The former president was booked as Inmate # P01135809 on charges of racketeering and conspiracy in relation to his effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Donald Trump's mugshot is currently going viral \ud83d\ude33 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/T93dfnayBe\">pic.twitter.com\/T93dfnayBe<\/a><\/p>— Pop Hive (@thepophive) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thepophive\/status\/1695078547742732352?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 25, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Sheriff in Fulton County said that he wanted to treat Trump like any ordinary citizen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it was no ordinary citizen whose private jet airplane bearing his last name in capital letters departed New Jersey\u2019s Newark International Airport last night and landed in Atlanta at approximately 7 p.m. Trump could be seen exiting the aircraft at 7:15 p.m. wearing his customary dark suit and red tie. He waved to the cameras and got into his vehicle, and along with his 12-car motorcade led by an untold number of motorcycle uniform police officers, made the short drive to jail where he was booked on 13 counts on his latest, and his fourth criminal indictment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His motorcade arrived at the jail at approximately 7:37 p.m. At 7:52 p.m., the Sheriff\u2019s Office announced that Trump had been booked and released on bond. His motorcade left the jail grounds at approximately 7:57 p.m. and arrived back at the Atlanta airport by approximately 8:14 p.m. As soon as he exited his vehicle, Trump walked toward the waiting TV cameras and once again claimed he was innocent of all charges and did nothing wrong regarding this latest indictment, echoing his earlier claims that he still believes he won the 2020 presidential election, and that the election was stolen and rigged.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"467\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.acenewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/inline-trump-video-snip-aug-24-2023-yt.jpg\" alt=\"Ace News Today - Trump earns rightful place in history as first president ever to be criminally indicted, and have his mugshot taken\" class=\"wp-image-24134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.acenewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/inline-trump-video-snip-aug-24-2023-yt.jpg 467w, https:\/\/www.acenewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/inline-trump-video-snip-aug-24-2023-yt-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.acenewstoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/inline-trump-video-snip-aug-24-2023-yt-435x279.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 467px) 100vw, 467px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>(Image credit, YouTube, Aug. 24, 2023)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Trump statement after being criminally processed in Fulton County<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThank you very much for being here.
