Former President Trump and the 18 other individuals indicted by a Georgia grand jury on Monday night over their alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election are set to be booked at the Fulton County jail, according to multiple reports.

“At this point, based on guidance received from the district attorney’s office and presiding judge, it is expected that all 19 defendants named in the indictment will be booked at the Rice Street Jail,” Fulton County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Natalie Ammons said in a statement on Tuesday, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

“Keep in mind, defendants can turn themselves in at any time. The jail is open 24/7,” she added. “Also, due to the unprecedented nature of this case, some circumstances may change with little or no warning.”

Ammons also emphasized that the booking process and arraignment are “two separate things” in criminal cases in Fulton County, noting that some arraignments could be virtual.
