Trump news – live: Codefendants surrender to Fulton County Jail as former president’s fourth arrest looms

Fulton County Sheriff’s Office

Tucker Carlson drops first preview of Donald Trump interview

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has released a preview of his interview with Donald Trump that will air opposite the Republican Party’s first primary debate of the 2024 election season.

Meanwhile, the first mugshots of Donald Trump’s codefendants in the Georgia election interference case have been released.

Scott Hall and John Eastman were the first to turn themselves in on Tuesday, surrendering for arrest at Fulton County Jail before being released on bond.

In the early hours of Wednesday morning, two more codefendants Cathy Latham and David Shafer were also booked into the jail. In the afternoon former Trump attorneys Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell also surrendered.

Mr Trump has announced that he plans to surrender on Thursday – hours after skipping the first Republican presidential debate on Wednesday night.

Elsewhere, in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, a key witness has flipped his testimony and implicated the former president and his associates on the charges.

Yuscil Taveras, the former director of IT at Mar-a-Lago, accused Mr Trump and his employees Walt Nauta and Carlos de Oliviera of being involved in a scheme to delete security footage relating to the handling of classified documents, according to a new filing.
