Former President Donald Trump was hit with three new charges in a superseding indictment for his alleged mishandling of classified documents on Thursday.
The three new charges brought against Trump bring his total in the indictment to 40 but also included charges against an additional defendant, Mar-a-Lago worker Carlos De Oliveira. With the superseding indictment from special counsel Jack Smith's investigation, here are some of the new details we have learned through the allegations.New charges won't change timeline for Trump
"The superseding indictment should not disturb the Court’s scheduling order, ECF No. 83, or the May 20, 2024, trial date, and the Special Counsel’s Office is taking steps related to discovery and security clearances to ensure that it does not do so," Smith said in the filing. The texts allegedly include coordination between Nauta and De Oliveira to attempt to delete security camera footage at the Mar-a-Lago Club. Nauta traveled back to Florida in June 2022 on an allegedly secret trip, which he told people was a"family emergency" and used a shushing emoji, when, in reality, he was allegedly going back to Mar-a-Lago to delete security footage that was going to be subpoenaed.
