The driveway off the main street in front of the jail has been closed for days in anticipation of the former US president’s arrival.
Donald Trump supporters have gathered outside Fulton County Jail where the former US president is expected to turn himself in.
Mr Trump and 18 others were indicted last week, accused by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis of participating in a sprawling scheme to undermine the will of Georgia voters who had narrowly rejected the Republican incumbent in favour of Democrat Joe Biden. It included supporters of the former president such as Cliff MacMorris, 66, from Naples, Florida, who held a flag that read “Trump Won Save America”.“You don’t have the right to persecute somebody unjustly,” Mr MacMorris said.
“I’m here to support Donald J Trump. I want him to see some of the millions that show up at the polls for him.” On most days, the public and news media are free to drive right up to the front of the jail and news cameras have captured the arrivals and departures of many high-profile people who have been booked into the jail.
