Donald Trump: Everything We Know About His Arrest

Former President Donald Trump was indicted for a whopping 4th time and arrested in Georgia on August 24, 2023. The latest charges stem from his attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in the state. Officials accused Trump of unlawfully wielding his influence and power to secure the White House for another four years.

Since that time, Trump has continued to push the false narrative that he won the election and how it was stolen from him. While he’s gotten away with plenty in the past, he may have gone too far this time. Here’s everything you need to know about the charges against Donald Trump and his latest arrest in Georgia.

What Donald Trump Is Accused Of Doing

The embattled 45th president is accused of conspiring with 18 other people, including some who previously worked in his administration, of scheming to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. In a 41-count, 98-page indictment, Donald Trump was hit with 13 felony charges. Some of these include racketeering, making false statements, and solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer.

Donald is accused of calling Georgia’s Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger on January 2, 2021. Trump allegedly pressured him to change the results of the state’s election by finding him enough votes to secure victory. Besides being deemed inappropriate, the call was also perceived as threatening. Further, Georgia officials are also accusing Trump of conspiring with his co-defendants in harassing poll workers, trying to appoint new electors to vote for Trump, and trying to access voting machines. Fani Willis, the Fulton County district attorney who also hit Young Thug with RICO charges, has been relentless in going after Trump.

According to the AP, DA Willis said, “The indictment alleges that rather than abide by Georgia’s legal process for election challenges, the defendants engaged in a criminal racketeering enterprise to overturn Georgia’s presidential election result.”

The Arrest Of Donald Trump

Leading up to his arrest, Donald Trump kept teasing it. Since he had a timeframe to turn himself in, he chose August 24 at 7:30 p.m. local time. Being typical Trump, he addressed the controversy on his social media platform, Truth. In part, he posted, “I have to start getting ready to head down to Atlanta, Georgia, where Murder and other Violent Crimes have reached levels never seen before, to get ARRESTED by a Radical Left, Lowlife District Attorney, Fani Willis, for A PERFECT PHONE CALL, and having the audacity to challenge a RIGGED & STOLLEN ELECTION. THE EVIDENCE IS IRREFUTABLE! ARREST TIME: 7:30 P.M.” 

Donald Trump milked every moment and arrived in his private jet, dubbed the “Trump Force One.” Like every other defendant in Fulton County, Mr. Trump had to take a mugshot. Boy, oh boy, did he take a mugshot. Staring right at the camera with a scowl that gave new meaning to “if looks could kill,” Trump left an impression that will last a lifetime. After posting his $200,000 bond, Donald Trump was on his way to continue his life and campaigning for another term in office.

Some of Trump’s co-conspirators include the man once known as America’s mayor and Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani. Fulton County also indicted former Trump White House aide Mark Meadows. Leader of “Black Voices for Trump” Harrison Floyd and former Kanye West publicist Trevian Kutti were also indicted and arrested.

What Could Happen To Donald Trump

Currently, Donald Trump is making a ton of money, capitalizing off of merch with his now-infamous mugshot. He’s also leading the polls for the Republican nomination for the 2024 election. While Trump is taking it all in stride and making his situation no big deal, he’s facing some severe consequences. He’s set to be arraigned in Georgia on September 6 at 9:30 a.m.

Along with the other pending cases in other states, Trump is facing hundreds of years behind bars. However, that is highly unlikely given he’s a former president, wealth, and influence. Although his arrest was touted as proving Trump was not above the law, everything surrounding it differed from the typical defendant. But, when it comes to Donald Trump, nothing is ordinary.

Trump Hires Gunna’s Lawyer Before Surrendering on Georgia RICO #TrumpMugShot

Trump Hires Gunna's Lawyer Before Surrendering on Georgia RICO

Trump’s Georgia RICO case already drew comparisons to the YSL Rico case due to both being executed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. But now we reach a deeper criminal link as Trump has hired a new lawyer ahead of his surrender, Steven Sadow, who recently represented Gunna and secured the rapper’s Alford plea deal.

According to WSB-TV, Trump brought in Sadow just ahead of his visit to Fulton County. Sadow spoke with ABC News about his new client.

“I have been retained to represent President Trump in the Fulton County, Georgia case,” Sadow said. “The President should never have been indicted. He is innocent of all the charges brought against him. We look forward to the case being dismissed or, if necessary, an unbiased, open-minded jury finding the President not guilty. Prosecutions intended to advance or serve the ambitions and careers of political opponents of the President have no place in our justice system.”

Facing a 41-count indictment, Trump’s bravado against charges is reportedly gone. An insider told Page Six, Trump’s indictment has “brought about a change.” The insider added, “he’s not so confident anymore. He’s not acting so cocky anymore. He’s not lashing out so much. The arrogance is gone.”

A bond of $200,000 has been set for Former President Donald Trump in a Georgia RICO indictment that also charges 18 of his business associates. According to The New York Times, Trump and the defendants must pay a cash bond upon booking in Atlanta.

As a condition of his bond, Trump cannot violate state or federal laws or communicate with his co-defendants individually. All conversations with others charged must come through legal representatives. In addition, if he was told not to intimidate witnesses or co-defendants. Additional orders included “make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against the community or to any property in the community,” which includes “posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media.”

President Donald Trump and his 18 co-defendants will be booked into Fulton County Jail. In addition to Trump, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, and more will be booked at the jail on Rice Street. That includes Trevian Kutti, who once was a publicist for R. Kelly and Kanye West. All charged party members will be fingerprinted and have a mugshot.

“Unless somebody tells me differently, we are following our normal practices, and so it doesn’t matter your status, we’ll have a mugshot ready for you,” Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat said.

According to The New York Times, once Trump is arraigned, a judge will be assigned who will schedule the trial.

Returning to Truth Social, his Twitter/X alternative, Trump blasted the charges by issuing, “So, the Witch Hunt continues!” Trump also attacked Willis, writing she is an out of control and very corrupt District Attorney who campaigned and raised money on, ‘I will get Trump.’”

Earlier this week, Donald Trump received his fourth indictment, a RICO charge, in the state of Georgia for attempting to overturn election results in the state to stay in power. Trump, his advisors, and staff are accused of organizing a “criminal enterprise” against official election results. A grand jury handed down the indictment.

A new 100-page indictment names Trump and 18 others as charged with lying to Georgia legislature and state officials, creating a fake pro-Trump slate for the Electoral College, harassing election workers, engaging in a cover-up, and four more crimes. There are officially 41 counts. Of those indicted are Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, and Kenneth Chesebro.

The leading charge against Trump was issued under the RICO law, short for Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations, originally set to target the mafia and organized crime. The RICO law has been notable throughout Hip-Hop, specifically regarding the YSL chase involving Young Thug. The charges against Trump and Thugger were both brought forth by Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis.

Trump and his co-defendants now have until Aug. 25 to surrender to Fulton County, GA. “We look forward to a detailed review of this indictment, which is undoubtedly just as flawed and unconstitutional as this entire process has been,” Trump’s legal team said in response.

According to The New York Times, once Trump is arraigned, a judge will be assigned who will schedule the trial.

Returning to Truth Social, his Twitter/X alternative, Trump blasted the charges by issuing, “So, the Witch Hunt continues!” Trump also attacked Willis, writing she is an out of control and very corrupt District Attorney who campaigned and raised money on, ‘I will get Trump.’”
