Members of the local and international media descended on the Fulton County Jail again Wednesday morning, braving the heat for hours on end in the hopes of spotting some of the defendants coming or going.

Patty and Rusty Bickford said they drove from Columbia for the previous night’s WNBA game, but swung by the jail to “see justice served.”
”If he did half of what they say he did, he’s guilty as a dog,” said Patty Bickford, 70, a retired Lockheed Martin employee. ”It’s just fun watching history unfold, and being my age, I have seen so freaking much.”

The 58-year-old Trinidad native dubbed her travels the “Trump Indictment Tour 2023.”
