Two of the former president’s co-defendants turned themselves in Tuesday in Fulton County, while two others appealed to a federal judge for permission not to show up at all.
ATLANTA - As law enforcement officials began to prepare for Donaldat the Fulton County Jail on charges he illegally conspired to overturn his 2020 election loss, two of the former president’s co-defendants turned themselves in while two others appealed to a federal judge for permission not to show up at all.
But as bail negotiations continued Tuesday for others charged in the Georgia election case, two other former Trump advisers asked a federal judge to block Fulton County District Attorney Fani T. Willis from having them arrested as they seek to move their cases from state court into federal court. Meadows’s attorneys pressed a judge to issue an order “prohibiting” Willis from “arresting or causing the arrest” of Meadows before Monday’s hearing. Clark’s attorneys made a similar request. Jones ordered Fulton County prosecutors to respond to the filings by Wednesday afternoon. Willis has also been ordered to respond to Meadows’s removal request by Wednesday.
The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, which manages the jail and oversees security around the facility, warned of a “hard lockdown” ahead of Trump’s expected surrender on Thursday, including for reporters who have staked out areas around the building in an attempt to spot and speak to Trump’s co-defendants as they report to jail ahead of Friday’s deadline.
Across town, bail negotiations continued inside the Fulton County Courthouse between the district attorney’s office and attorneys for those charged in the case. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, who is overseeing the case, signed off on several agreements paving the way for co-defendants to surrender at the jail in coming days.
