At least six of the 19 people facing charges have now appeared at the Fulton County jail to be booked.
Shafer, a former state senator and chairman emeritus of the Georgia GOP, been charged with eight counts, some of which relate to the scheme to appoint the fake slate of electors. His bond was set at $75,000. Latham is accused of participating in the breach of election equipment in Coffee County. Her bond was also set at $75,000.
Eastman also allegedly participated in an Oval Office meeting on Jan. 4, 2021, with Trump, then-Vice President Mike Pence, and two of Pence's top aides. During the meeting, Trump and Eastman argued that the vice president could unilaterally reject electoral votes from some states or delay Congress' counting of the votes on Jan. 6, 2021, to allow state legislatures to appoint electors in favor of Trump, according to the indictment.
"Each Defendant in this indictment, no less than any other American citizen, is entitled to rely upon the advice of counsel and the benefit of past legal precedent in challenging what former Vice President Pence described as, 'serious allegations of voting irregularities and numerous instances of officials setting aside state election law' in the 2020 election," he said.
The indictment returned in Fulton County charges Clark with two counts and claims an email he sent to then-Acting U.S. Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen seeking to send"false" information to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp was a"substantial step" in the racketeering case.
