Addressing the press at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, former President Donald Trump said, "I did nothing wrong."

Labelling the criminal case against him a "travesty of justice," Trump said, "we have every single right to challenge an election that we think is dishonest".

According to the Fulton County Sheriff's Office, being taken into custody in jail means the defendant is technically "under arrest." The defendants are then expected to be fingerprinted and have their mug shot taken, said Fulton County Sheriff Patrick Labat.

Normally, those taken into custody are also subjected to a thorough body search and undergo a medical screening and receive a pre-trial consultation to determine whether they can sign out.
