Donald Trump indictment: Mug shots released of smiling Ellis, Giuliani, and Powell

Jenna Ellis, a former attorney for Donald Trump, became the latest to surrender to authorities in Fulton County Wednesday as part of the sweeping racketeering indictment accusing the former president and associates of attempting to subvert the 2020 election.

Her consent bond order, filed Tuesday, is $100,000 in total. The bond amount for the count of violation of Georgia’s RICO Act is $75,000, and the amount for the count of solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer is $25,000.

Ellis became the ninth of 19 defendants to surrender after District Attorney Fani Willis‘s sweeping indictment last week, and Trump has said he will surrender Thursday.

Along with Ellis’s surrender came a mug shot of her with a cheery smile, wearing rose-colored lipstick with a black blazer jacket.

Other mug shots of defendants were released on Wednesday, including former Trump attorneys Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani.

Giuliani is facing 13 felony charges, including violating Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, soliciting a violation of oath by a public officer, and giving false statements.

Powell is facing seven felony charges, including violations of the RICO Act, two counts of conspiracy to commit election fraud, conspiracy to commit computer theft, conspiracy to commit computer trespass, conspiracy to commit computer invasion of privacy, and conspiracy to defraud the state.

Earlier in the day, attorneys Kenneth Chesebro and Ray Smith III also surrendered to authorities and had their booking photos posted.

Along with allegedly violating the RICO Act, Chesebro faces six conspiracy-related counts, including forgery in the first degree and filing false documents.

Smith, who is a lawyer at the firm Smith and Liss, advised alternate GOP electors who met at the Georgia Capitol building and signed documents claiming Trump had won despite his loss in the state. He faces charges including racketeering, conspiracy, soliciting a violation of oath of office by a public official, and making false statements and was released on a $50,000 bond.

Nearly all 19 defendants have been heard from by Wednesday afternoon, while a handful, including Harrison Floyd and Trevian Kutti, two defendants alleged of pressuring local election officials to alter the results of the 2020 election, have yet to sign a bond order.

Trump is expected to turn himself in Thursday evening and had his bond set at $200,000 on Monday.
