Thursday evening, former President Donald Trump was arrested for the fourth time this year. The presidential candidate traveled to the Fulton County Jail for booking in connection with the 13 count indictment against him for attempting to illegally overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

The former president was indicted amid speculation the world would finally know how tall he is and how much he weighs. Previous data given from prior examinations has been called into question. So, the hope was that an official register by arresting officers would set the record straight.

Donald Trump's height and weight revealed after being arrested in Georgia

According to the transfer record, Trump’s height is 6 feet 3 inches. On the other hand, his weight was recorded at 215 pounds, more than 30 pounds less than his officially disclosed weight at the time of his last official White House physical, according to the Washington Post.

However, this information may not be reliable. First, it is unclear where the Fulton County Sheriff's Office officials obtained this information. On the other hand, data from other co-defendants in this case has not been entirely accurate.

For example, David Shafer was recorded as being 5 feet 5 inches tall, with black hair and blue eyes, but he is taller, as well as having gray hair and brown eyes. Cathy Latham, is listed with blonde or strawberry blonde hair, but her hair is gray, according to the Washington Post.

Donald Trump’s mug shot after being arrested in Georgia

Unlike the previous three arrests, in Georgia, the former president did have a mug shot taken of him. According to the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, the mugshots of the defendants in normally post around 4:00 p.m. daily to the media.

Since Trump didn’t turn himself in until after that time, it left everyone thinking that they wouldn’t get a glimpse until Friday afternoon. However, Trump managed to post his own mug shot late on Thursday, minus the sheriff’s symbol in the official release. According to the New York Post merchandise featuring the photo went on sale shortly after he left the Atlanta area jail.
