All the things they normally do. but that s a choice. they don t necessarily have to do that. right, they ve chosen to do it like they ve done others. and importantly, he s gonna be turning himself in at the jail, which is the fulton county jail is sort of a very dark place. it s a place that s getting a lot of scrutiny, even from the justice department, for the conditions under which prisoners are being held there. so, it is not a nice place. and the former president s got to be going in there, he s gonna go through a process, obviously surrounded by secret service, a lot of protection for him. but it is not going to be like the other ones. and you know, in this case, the georgia law allows for the release of that mugshot. it s something that, you know, he s so far not had to have happen. obviously, his fundraising people, i think, do believe this is something he could do to his own advantage to try to raise money off of. we ll see whether that s how it works. you said that like
what i believe will come out will be a mugshot, and he will be fingerprinted. that s what the established protocol for the fulton county sheriff s department is. they talked about it. they talked about what they re going to do, steve basal, and pat labat. and former president trump s gonna arrive at the jail, secure location, go up a secure elevator, and come up on the floor where he will be the only person walking down that hall with law enforcement. potentially, there will be two secret service agents with him, the of the district, steve basal, the agent in charge of the detail, and the sheriff s personnel will be there to process former president trump. it s a small thing, perhaps, but, you know, trump is likely to walk and wearing a suit and tie. will he be wearing that in his mugshot? yes, he will. they will not require him to change into any jail garb or
The great thing here is, both pat labat and steve beso who s the secret service agent in charge, they have known each other for the last couple of years. they belong to a group called metropole. they are not strangers calling each other, they are colleagues calling each other to make this happen. they are on the same page, about what should happen. with the former president. we were discussing the question of whether he will have a mugshot, fingerprinting, all of that. in terms of what happens inside the jail, what do you think is lightly to come out of this process. well i believe what will come out will be a mugshot, and he will be fingerprinted. that is what the established protocol for the fulton county sheriff s department is. they have talked about it, they talked about what they are going to do bezos and leblanc, former president trump is going
Used, a physical search, a medical check, some things. what do you think? well, certainly i think there is nothing unusual about this case. i think it is historically significant on a very, very high level. and while certainly fulton county and atlanta has seen its share of really high-profile defendants and cases, i think this one has made its way to the top of that stack. certainly through the secret service and the coordination with the fulton county sheriff s department, they will come up with a protocol that will safely ensure that the former president is able to get in and get out very smoothly without any issues with respect to his safety. i think the normal processes with inside the fulton county jail will take place. and so i would expect that fingerprinting and general booking will take place. and hopefully on the part of the
The directions. theoretically, he could be jailed. you are absolutely right. i want to get your thoughts, congressman, while i have you on some of the other breaking news just coming into the situation room. that employees at the fulton county sheriff s department and georgia are facing threats to them and their homes because of the rope they will play in trump s surrender letter this week. this comes after the district attorney, fadi willis, had to beef up her own security. how serious is the threat environment around this case right now? well, you are asking the question of somebody who was in the house chamber on january 6th when a mob inspired by donald trump and the lie that he had won the election broke into the capital and attacked police officers and it s very, very dangerous, wolf, and sadly, this is part and parcel of this whole process. the federal judge, who is presiding over the other cases, has been threatened.
