Former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants in the Georgia racketeering case are expected to surrender themselves at the notorious Fulton County Jail for processing this week. The jail, which has been under investigation by the Department of Justice for alleged inmate abuse and neglect, has faced numerous issues including overcrowding, inmate deaths, excessive force by officers, and outbreaks of lice and scabies. The upcoming processing of Trump and his co-defendants is likely to shine a spotlight on the conditions at the facility.

In the racketeering case, Trump and 18 others have been indicted on charges including violation of the state's RICO Act, conspiracy to commit impersonating a public officer, and filing false documents. Four of the co-defendants, including two Trump campaign attorneys, have been granted bond and are expected to surrender to the jail by Friday at noon.

While Trump's legal team is in contact with the Fulton County District Attorney's office to work out the logistics of his surrender and arraignment, the defendants in this case are not expected to have an initial court appearance due to the anticipated negotiations for release and bond terms.

The processing of Trump and his co-defendants at the Fulton County Jail begs the question of whether the conditions at the facility will be able to handle such high-profile detainees and whether it will bring attention to the issues of inmate treatment and justice disparities in the criminal justice system.
