12 members of the alleged criminal conspiracy to overthrow the 2020 election have surrendered

0:05.6

to prosecutors in Fulton County, and that list now includes the man at the top of that alleged

0:11.1

conspiracy, Donald John Trump. Tonight is the first time in history that we have seen a mug shot

0:18.2

of a former president of the United States, a man who is now known by this inmate ID number,

0:24.4

P01135809. Now the process that resulted in that mug shot and that assigned number began when

0:33.7

Mr. Trump landed in Atlanta around 7 p.m. Eastern time this evening, at which point Trump's

0:39.0

motorcade took him directly to the Fulton County jail where he was booked and arrested around 740 p.m.

0:46.0

The 45th president of the United States was then fingerprinted and had his mug shot taken.

0:52.3

We also know that Mr. Trump enlisted the services of a local bail bond, bail bondsman to

1:26.6

And we will have more on that development later on this hour. There are still seven defendants

1:30.8

in this case who have not yet surrendered, though I do believe we have some breaking news that they

1:34.7

are expected to surrender by tomorrow at noon. That list includes Jeffrey Clark, the man

1:40.4

tried to install as U.S. Attorney General after the 2020 election, and Trevian Kuti, the

1:45.6

publicist for rapper and Nazi enthusiast Kanye West, known as Yeh, who was involved in the alleged

1:52.0

plot to pressure and intimidate Georgia poll worker Ruby Freeman. But for now, all eyes are on

1:58.4

the former president who just spoke to reporters on the tarmac at the airport, repeating the claims
