Former President Donald Trump’s legal battles have taken another dramatic turn as he faces his fourth indictment, this time in Fulton County, Georgia. The charges stem from his alleged involvement in efforts to overturn the state’s 2020 election results. As the legal proceedings unfold, the question on many people’s minds is: when will Trump’s mugshot be released by Fulton County, Georgia? This high-profile case has generated intense interest and speculation, with various key details coming to light.
When?
The timeline of events surrounding Trump’s surrender and the subsequent release of his mugshot is crucial in understanding the progression of this legal saga.
According to reports, Donald Trump confirmed on his social media platform, Truth Social, his intention to surrender himself to authorities in Fulton County, Georgia. The scheduled date for his surrender is Thursday, with indications that he might choose to do so in the evening, potentially to coincide with prime time for maximum visibility. The deadline for Trump and his co-defendants to surrender is set for noon on Friday, August 25.
Where will it take place?
The venue for Trump’s surrender is the Fulton County jail on Rice Street. This facility has come under scrutiny for its poor conditions, leading the Justice Department to initiate a civil rights investigation in July. This adds another layer of complexity to the already highly publicized case.

What will happen once he turns himself in?
The specifics of Trump’s surrender process are still being negotiated. In general, defendants booked at the Fulton County jail undergo various procedures, including searches, medical screenings, fingerprinting, and the standard process of having a mugshot taken. However, there’s uncertainty about whether Trump will go through the same process as other defendants.
Will he get a mugshot?
While the Fulton County sheriff has suggested that Trump will be subjected to the same procedures as other defendants, including having a mugshot taken, this remains somewhat uncertain. The sheriff mentioned following “normal practices” unless instructed otherwise.
When will Trump’s mugshot be released?
The release of booking information, including mugshots, by the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office is scheduled for 4 p.m. each day. If Trump surrenders on Thursday night, his mugshot might not be made public until Friday afternoon, depending on when the booking process is completed and the information is released.
