Trump Lawyers OK $200,000 Bond in Georgia Election Case

NEW YORK POST: Former President Donald Trump has agreed to post a $200,000 bond and abide by other release conditions in the case charging him with illegally trying to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election result.

The 77-year-old former president’s consent bond order was revealed in a filing with the Superior Court of Fulton County on Monday, signed by Judge Scott McAfee, District Attorney Fani Willis, and members of Trump’s legal team.

Under the terms of the agreement, the 2024 Republican presidential frontrunner will pay the court an $80,000 bond for release on count 1 of the Georgia grand jury’s indictment, which accuses Trump of violating the state’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. » | Victor Nava | Monday, August 21, 2023
