When will the 18 co defendants begin turning themselves in ?

Are they also "negotiating" with the district attorney in Fulton county ?
Will they quietly sneek in and be processed and sneek out 1 by 1 or will the public know when they go in ?

and I'm betting on an 11:59am turn in. Maybe tfg will try to ignore it, but he is a flight risk...if anyone will take him.
