One of the 18 co-defendants charged alongside former President Donald Trump asserts that prosecutors in Fulton County, Georgia are forcing those who cannot afford – or were not offered – bail to spend weeks in squalid conditions more befitting of a third-world country than a U.S. jail cell.
Harrison Floyd, one of the leaders of the former president’s “Black Voices for Trump” coalition, has been charged by District Attorney Fani Willis with conspiring with Trump and others to overturn the results of Georgia’s 2020 election. Speaking with Newsmax, Floyd said he spent “close to a week” in jail because prosecutors did not contact his lawyer in Washington, D.C. to negotiate terms for posting bond, resulting in his imprisonment.
“They spoke to everyone around the sun trying to pressure me except for me. So I showed up just as I was told, you know I’m a Marine so I tried to be there a little bit early… Thought I was just going to check in like everybody else, but that was not the case,” Floyd said.
Asked about the “notorious reputation” of the Fulton County jail, Floyd described a horrific experience.
“God was with me, when I stepped in that cell door and it closed behind me… The conditions of that jail, the reason why it is the way it is, it’s not because of the staff that works there. It’s because of the failed leadership of Fulton County. They have not done a good job of appropriating funds, taking care of the facility. While I was in there, a lot of the officers… they are not getting the resources they need to ensure the safety of the prisoners,” he said.
“What’s going on in that jail, I’ve seen worse conditions in Iraq. When I went to my cell for the first time, there was fecal matter smeared on one of the walls. The first morning that I woke up, the guy in the cell next to me was being tased.”
“I’m just grateful that I served in the United States Marine Corps infantry and I’ve dealt with worse,” he said, adding a plea to the audience to “pray for the inmates who are in that jail.”

RE: squalid conditions more befitting of a third-world country
Like the Dem run woke United States of America lately?🍌🍌🌎
Sic OSHA on them.
I believe that is what these leftists mean by "equity".
This man is a real patriot, and focused on God and how his military service brought him through these conditions. It sounds like he would like to run for political office to try to remedy those problems in the Fulton County Jail. Please try to watch the interview with Greg Kelly; this guy was awesome.
eff this banana republic that we live in.
God, bless America: Because it sure feels like You’ve laid a curse...
The Nazis were a minority party - just like the Democrats.
bttt
Are you talking about race or numbers? Because number wise the democrats outnumber Republicans. They just didn’t get out and vote like we did. Now that’s all changed and we lose every time if they get their vote out.
Malicious Prosecution
Jails in the US are bad? Wow. Film at 11. //sarc
I hope this man fires his lawyer. There is zero reason for him to NOT have a bond deal set before we walked in the door. That stuff is defense lawyer 101.
fixed it.
I understand what you are saying, but you are mistaken.
Go back to a different line such as...Satan runs to and fro seeking whom he may devour.
Also, 2Chronicles 7:14
Finally, any curse isn’t against those who are in Messiah. They are cleansed.
But we WILL see the fakes. The curse is against evil.
But first, we have to see that evil.
