television or hiring someone who has questionable credentials. this is someone who is well respected here in atlanta. you been in the courtroom with stephen. what s his reputation? absolutely. he is notorious. he handles high-profile cases only. usually really, really serious cases. murder, rico, racketeering, a lot of federal cases in federal courts all over the state and he s known as a trial lawyer and most of the cases he has go to trial and if not, he s also handling really huge appeals at our georgia state supreme court. he s represented ti, ray lewis, usher. he has represented high-profile clients. safe to say that this is the highest profile case that he has ever taken. i should note behind us, jake and anderson, we can see a few cars arriving we are truly right outside the fulton county jail. there, can you walk us through what this is going to look like? what is trump going to see when he walks into the shell? he s going to be going through the sally port, which is wh
totally. we haven t seen that. and that s worth, i think, it s worth noting where we are, keeping perspective on that. i would also just say, and this may seem like a small point, but had it gone the other way, it would mean something very different. this is a very orderly scene. i think those are three sheriff s department buses that are pulled up in front of the sally port essentially to create a smaller corridor and also to block the view, also presumably for security. they had this planned out. the motorcade had a clear run from the airport to the sheriff s department. you saw they had cleared the streets. there were, you know, not a ton of protesters but several dozen protesters around and some people on both sides and lots of media around at the fulton count a jail today. you re not seeing disorder around this. i was worried about that. when we saw rudy giuliani yesterday, the day before yesterday? yesterday. when he turned himself in and then tried to make remarks to reporte
atlanta pd and the other agencies, they have intersection control, which is as he approaches, those are going to be blocks to traffic, so it s going to be very similar to the right he would take when he was president of the united states. what, basically, a frozen route from the airport to the jail. is that because of security concerns because we haven t seen that for the last time here. so we haven t and it is a security concern. i think that it s also about waiting until this late at night to get in quickly, get out quickly, avoid, you know, making the rush-hour worse i think from donald trump standpoint, there s probably some aspect of doing this during primetime television to catch up on exposure that he would have missed last night but i also, the plan is that when they get to the jail, there is a sally port and they drive in the right street side of the jefferson street side. they go into the sally port. the gate closes behind them.
defendant would go through with the exception of, if a person knows they have an active warrant off of the street, sometimes their attorney will arrange to walk them in the front door of the jail and say, hi, my client is surrendering and you would do that through the front door but if you are resting on the street and you are taken in a police vehicle, you are going to be taken to the back of sally port. will we were talking about the two tiered system of justice and how some people are treated and trump is treated and typically they would not clear the streets of atlanta to have a defendants motorcade come through. this does look unusual than what you would typically see for a defendant. you are right. the streets would not be close and i will say that when they do transport inmates from the joe to the fulton county courthouse, which is about a seven minute ride, that happens a few times a day and they do have an escort, obviously, for safety purposes with the sheriff s office th
