Bail bondsman Scott Hall on Tuesday became the first co-defendant being charged in the Georgia election interference case to surrender to authorities, ABC News reports.
Hall, who lives in Georgia, was booked at Fulton County Jail on Tuesday morning, according to records from the Fulton County Inmate Record Database. He is one of 19 co-defendants, including former President Donald Trump, to be accused in a racketeering indictment of conspiring to overturn the state’s results in the 2020 presidential election.
According to ABC, Hall has been charged with violating the Georgia RICO Act; two counts of conspiracy to commit election fraud; multiple computer-related crimes; and conspiracy to defraud the state.
An attorney for Trump’s former lawyer John Eastman, who has also been charged as a co-defendant in the case, said Eastman will surrender to authorities later Tuesday morning. Trump and the other co-defendants must surrender to authorities by Friday. The former president announced on Monday that he intends to turn himself in on Thursday.
