Thursday is when a reliable source tells Audacy Atlanta that former U.S. President Donald Trump will surrender to authorities in Atlanta. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has given Trump and 18 other co-defendants until Friday, August 25 at noon to turn themselves in. They were indicted last week on charges connected with trying to interfere in the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

Listen below as a former Secret Service Agent In Charge details the booking process
After 33 years with the U.S. Secret Service, Ray Moore, has settled into retirement as founder of Moore and Associates-Security Consultants, LLC in Conyers, Ga.
An Atlanta native, Moore joined the Secret Service after college and later worked the detail of President Bill Clinton from 1994-1999.
"Everywhere President Clinton went he had a protective bubble or umbrella around him," says Moore. It will be the same protection for former President Trump when he turns himself in to Fulton County this week.
According to Moore, the Secret Service is going to "cross all their T's and dot their I's with the respective police departments." In Atlanta the federal agents will be working with the Georgia State Patrol, Atlanta police, the sheriff's department, Atlanta Fire Department. They're all coming together says Moore "to make sure former President Trump is safe, the agents are safe, and the citizens of Atlanta and the other metro areas they will go through are safe."
Trump is expected to be processed at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta. In announcing preparations for the former president's appearance, the latest directive from the Fulton County Sheriff's office Monday indicates When Former President Trump surrenders: there will be a hard lockdown of the area surrounding the Rice Street Jail, meaning no ingress or egress during that time.
