On August 24, 2023, after being formally charged on racketeering and similar charges, Donald Trump agreed to turn himself in to police at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia, where a mug shot of him was taken. It is the first and only police booking mug shot of a U.S. president.

After its publishing, the mug shot was used on merchandise by Trump's 2024 presidential campaign, in Internet memes, and featured on various media reports worldwide.[1][2][3]
