Donald #Trump has arrived in Georgia to surrender to authorities on charges related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump arrived at Fulton County Jail in Atlanta on Thursday evening, where he was set to be booked on racketeering and conspiracy charges linked to his alleged efforts to upend his 2020 reelection loss in the Southern state.

This marked an unprecedented fourth time that Trump was to be arrested and booked in the past five months.

After being fingerprinted and having a mugshot taken, he is expected to be released pending trial on a $200,000 bond his lawyers negotiated earlier this week with Fulton County prosecutor Fani Willis.

No previous U.S. president has been charged with criminal offenses, but Trump is now facing 91 charges across the four indictments for his alleged actions before, during and after his single-term presidency ended in early 2021.
