Do we get a perp walk? I want to see fucking handcuffs on him.
Everytime I was arrested I was arrested.
You know, spread your cheeks and cough type shit.
I thought the humiliation was part of the thing. And I certainly hope it is here at some point.
Humiliation should absolutely not be part of being arrested. You are still innocent at that point. Trump should not receive any special treatment though. We can hate Trump and the police at the same time.
Humiliation should absolutely not be part of being arrested
Agreed. I’m tired of people pretending that abuse in the Justice system is acceptable because they want to see someone punished. I also agree that Trump should go through the same process as everyone else.
I also get very uncomfortable when people joke about rape in prison. Dropping the soap jokes etc. Rape is not okay in any context, prison included. Convicted criminals do not deserve to have horrendous crimes committed against them just because they are being held accountable for their own crime. And that’s leaving aside the truly appalling number of innocent people being held in pretrial detention because they can’t afford bail.
I agree, It should not be.
But Trump thinks that the cops these days are not rough enough with their suspects.
The guy needs his ego deflated and to be treated like the average person.
Spreading your cheeks and coughing is what the average person goes through when arrested.
Should humiliation before conviction be a thing? No. But if I went through it for two victimless felonies, he can go through it for his fifty (or whatever we’re at now) for attempting to destroy our democracy.
I believe his current number of felonies (at time of writing) is actually 91
Especially for someone who was so “pro police” (when they’re on his side) in office and advocated for police treating people worse. He should feel what it’s like and maybe he’d change his mind, though I doubt that. He would just say he was treated wrong, but the other people got what they deserved.
Actually, I don’t. I’d rather this not turn into a spectacle, just you broke the law, you were found guilty, now go to jail. Having it become a whole crazy political war I don’t think would be good for the country.
This is a good point. We need the message sent to be that nobody is above the law.
It matters that he committed crimes, no matter how wealthy he is or who he knows. He should be treated like any other leader of a criminal organization.
Making it too much of a spectacle would feed into conspiracy theories about political motivation
To be fair, the leader of any other criminal organization being booked would be a public spectacle. I don’t know if it’s right in this case, but the fair thing to do would be to make a big deal out of it. People who do much less are paraded around, so why shouldn’t Trump? (I know the reasons why though.)
“Making it too much of a spectacle would feed into conspiracy theories about political motivation.”
Stop! News executives can only get so erect!
I want a mugshot, damnit!
A little while back the sheriff was asked about it and he said that unless he’s told differently, he has no intention of treating Trump differently than anyone else being processed. So, mugshots.
Do they let people keep their makeup on for mug shots???
I really don’t know but I doubt they make them clean up or shower before a mug shot, judging by the ones I’ve seen haha.
Are you implying (inferring?) that he didn’t already look like that when he was arrested?
I want to see him perp-walked, and I want to see him wearing prison orange! To match his makeup, of course!
Yeah but then he’d look naked
I want this so bad!
Hell I got the lube and towels ready at this point.
We all do.
This case is the wild card so who knows.
Sounds like we get a mug shot at least!
At which part of him would you have the mug shot at? Mug with a handle? Which material? I didn’t know this was a thing, but I’m really excited now!
- I’m torn between face and balls, face would probably be more satisfying but balls are usually funnier.
- Let’s go no handle, the handle might impact accuracy.
- I’m kinda feeling silicone, I think I’d feel bad about something harder. Silicone would keep the event fun and cathartic, ceramic might lead to blood everywhere.
Fine by me. Silicone is acceptable, stamped steel would be ok as well. Hard but light and it would make a nice bonk sound.
I want the cop car, the cuffs, the officer holding him by the shoulder and pushing his head down through the open car door to guide him into the back seat.
If he is actually found to be guilty and goes to jail. I might still have some hope for American democracy.
Watch this asshole pull a milosevic or Ken lay and have a heart attack before ever actually facing the consequences of their crimes.
If he has it in court on camera because he hears, “guilty”, I might consider it good enough.
No cameras in federal criminal court sadly. IDK about the states tho, each might be different
Georgia very well might be. It is on cameraby default and some lawtuber (I already forgot) said it’s usually rather difficult to justify turning them off.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former President Donald Trump is expected to surrender at the Fulton County jail, the local sheriff said Tuesday in a statement, along with the other 18 co-defendants charged on Monday in the Georgia 2020 election subversion case.
Trump, who was charged with 13 counts including racketeering, has not publicly indicated when he intends to surrender ahead of the August 25 deadline imposed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
“At this point, based on guidance received from the district attorney’s office and presiding judge, it is expected that all 19 defendants named in the indictment will be booked at the Rice Street Jail,” the statement said.
Defendants who are not immediately arrested upon indictment – as was the case for Trump and his associates – usually negotiate bond if applicable, as well as other terms of release with the district attorney’s office.
Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s former lawyer who is also charged in the case, said Tuesday on WABC talk radio that he would pick a day next week to surrender to authorities, adding, “There has to be bail, I imagine.
The 41-count indictment unsealed Monday night lays out a sweeping investigation led by Willis into some of the most egregious efforts by Trump’s allies to meddle in the 2020 presidential election.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Mugshot heard round the world
Imagine if his comb over is all over the place and his makeup is running. Glorious.
Can we have cash back
