Former President Donald Trump was hit Thursday night with three new criminal charges in addition to the ones he already faced related to his retaining classified documents at his Florida residence after leaving the White House.
Trump is accused in a new superseding indictment with his valet, Walt Nauta, of an attempt to delete video surveillance foot at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida during the summer of 2022, when federal officials were seeking the return of government records they suspected of being kept at that location.
Also Thursday, a third defendant was added to the case against Trump and Nauta, as part of the new indictment in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.
The new defendant, Carlos de Oliveira, is the head of maintenance at Mar-a-Lago.
The new charges against Trump include an additional count of willful retention of national defense information and two new counts of obstruction against both him and Nauta.
De Oliveira, 56, was charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice, altering destroying, mutilating a document, and false statements.

The Feds ordered Mar-a-lago to shut off the surveillance cameras when they raided the place. The order was refused. And the same people who couldn't look at the video recorded by the surveillance cameras in the White House to see who stashed the bag of cocaine, or the two previous bags of marijuana, are now concerned over video tape at Mar-a-lago, which is clearly owned by Donald Trump, to do with what he pleases, while the surveillance cameras and video recorded within the White House, belongs to the tax payers of this country.
Remember the 18.5 missing segment on the Nixon tapes...are the Dems using a similar MO for Trump....since that worked against Nixon?
So basically they indicted Trump’s janitor. Slimeballs.
It looks like the far-left Feddies are going to us Nauta and de Oliveira as flip bait to create more lying BS about President Trump. It’s all the worthless bass turds have.
Usually it’s the Butler...here it’s the maintenance man...
But we can’t really tell if Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton did anything wrong…
how do they know there was an ATTEMPT??
I’m a child of the sixties so yes, I immediately thought of Nixon’s missing minutes...
I have a friend who wants to know as well.
Like they edited the January 6th videos, adding audio to it.
They never did find out what was missing...MP>Makes you think of Russia Russia Russia and the infamous phone call...that was a big nothing.
Did Mark Meadows have anything to do with this indictment?
“So he should give his enemies exactly what they want? Sounds like a plan.”
Sounds like a plan the French would love. Surrender monkeys, too. Does not sound like something a real American patriot would be for....ie giving in to the Marxist left.
I would guess they would have to show that the attempted deletion actually involved images of something incriminating. Seems a reach.
Sure he did. Smith needs to be curbed stomped
Exactly, might just as well cut out the middle man and go full dictator.
The Mar-a-Lago maintenance chief Carlos de Oliveira sure got a raw deal. I feel really sorry for him and his family. The Obama/Biden Crime Families cannot win this war.
Ya ok just give up then.
Didn’t Smith THREATEN President Trump with piling on added charges a few days ago.
The injustice is insufferable! If Americans don’t take a stand against this horrific injustice, guess who they’re coming for next?
