BREAKING: Trump Gets Great News In Mar-A-Lago Case
By Mark SteffenNovember 2, 2023
The judge overseeing former President Donald Trump’s case alleging his mishandling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago appears ready to grant him an extension in the case, questioning how his attorneys could possibly process the “mountain of evidence” presented by prosecutors in time for the May 2024 trial.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee, indicated in court Wednesday that Trump’s attorneys are right to question the current trajectory of the trial, saying she “has a hard time seeing how realistically this (current schedule) would work.” Prosecutors are requesting that Judge Cannon agree to keep the trial set for its May 20th, 2024 start date.
The case, brought by Biden Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith, has seen President Trump charged with multiple felonies alleging he improperly took documents from the White House that contained classified information and other national security secrets. President Trump has maintained his innocence, saying all records in his possession at Mar-a-Lago were declassified by him under the Presidential Records Act. Smith, meanwhile, contends that President Trump violated the 1917 Espionage Act, which is normally reserved for traitors peddling state secrets to foreign countries.
