Harrison Floyd said at his first court appearance that he could not afford a private lawyer and had been denied representation by a public defender because he did not qualify.
Floyd, who appeared virtually, said that it typically cost between $40,000 to $100,000 just to retain a private lawyer to fly to Georgia.

Are there no lawyers IN Georgia??
Also important to note this guy assaulted an FBI agent and is considered at risk to continue committing crimes, a major reason he was denied bond and is currently in jail awaiting trial
I don't want to diminish what this guy did. But let's remember that people died and were hurt that day as a result of what these 19 assholes did. They all should be in jail without bond.
Absolutely
Don't you have to use a lawyer licensed in Georgia? Maybe he got thrown in jail for being an idiot.
Obviously he got thrown in jail for being an idiot. No other poor person would help Trump.
Seems like there are no lawyers who would want to represent this guy for any less than that.
