Trump to Turn Himself In for Arraignment Thursday
The former president’s lawyers also agreed to a $200,000 bond
Former President Donald Trump is expected to turn himself for his arraignment and be processed this Thursday.
The date was set during negotiations Monday between his lawyers and the district attorney’s office.
CNN was the first to report the news and Trump quickly confirmed it on Truth Social, writing, "Can you believe it? I’ll be going to Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday to be ARRESTED by a Radical Left District Attorney, Fani Willis, who is overseeing one of the greatest Murder and Violent Crime DISASTERS in American History."
"In my case, the trip to Atlanta is not for “Murder,” but for making a PERFECT PHONE CALL! She campaigned, and is continuing to campaign, and raise money on, this WITCH HUNT."
He accused Willis of "strict coordination" with "Crooked Joe Biden's DOJ," adding the case is all about election interference.
