Special counsel Jack Smith’s plea to prevent co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos de Oliveira from seeing sensitive data in the Donald Trump Mar-a-Lago case has been granted by Judge Eileen Cannon. After carefully reviewing the proposals and pertinent papers, a judgment was made. The judge decided that Smith was responsible for not disclosing the sensitive information to de Oliveira and Nauta. This judgment was made after deliberations with defense attorneys, analysis of defense hypotheses, and a careful assessment of classified documents in light of the interests of the defendants.
Three justifications are given in the sequence to support Smith’s proposal: First, the content includes national security privilege and/or government-classified information. Secondly, Smith proved that the personal examination of classified documents by Nauta and de Oliveira would not be pertinent or useful to their defense under the Classified Information Procedures Act (CIPA). Third, Smith’s claim that there was insufficient evidence to support his defense was not refuted by Nauta or de Oliveira.
Following Smith’s recent claims that Trump tried to link his attorney to illicit activity involving secret data, a decision was made. In response to a grand jury subpoena, Trump allegedly attempted to get his attorney to lie to the FBI and grand jury, claiming that he had no records and that he would either destroy or conceal them rather than turn them over to the government. tried, tried, tried.
