Harrison Floyd was denied bond on Friday. A judge said he was a potential flight risk.
…
Floyd, who’s charged with racketeering, conspiracy and influencing a witness, turned himself in Thursday afternoon, ahead of Trump’s 20-minute appearance at the jail that evening. Prosecutors allege that Floyd, the former leader of Black Voices for Trump and the only Black man among the defendants, was part of a scheme to pressure election worker Ruby Freeman into making false statements. Freeman had been falsely accused by Trump and his allies of election fraud.
The public defenders office explained to him that he wasn’t qualified.
The judge just confirmed that he got that explanation.
