Former President Donald Trump announced Monday night that he will turn himself in Thursday in Fulton County, Georgia, after being indicted on a series of charges for his alleged attempts to cling to power after losing the 2020 presidential election.
"Can you believe it? I will be going to Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday to be ARRESTED by radical left-wing District Attorney Fani Willis," Trump wrote on his social network, Truth Social.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who led the investigation against the former president and his allies, had given the defendants until Friday afternoon to surrender voluntarily.
