Lawyers for two defendants in Donald Trump's classified documents case ought to consider whether their clients should cooperate with investigators after a key witness flipped, according to a legal expert.
Former federal prosecutor Michael McAuliffe was reacting to confirmation that Mar-a-Lago IT worker Yuscil Taveras changed his under-oath testimony and provided evidence against Trump, his aide Walt Nauta, and Mar-a-Lago maintenance worker Carlos De Oliveira in order to avoid perjury charges.
Taveras had previously testified to a special grand jury in March that he was not aware of any attempts by Trump, Nauta, or De Oliveira to delete security footage which had been subpoenaed by federal prosecutors as part of the classified documents case, a claim investigators said they knew was false.
After being made aware he faced potential perjury charges, Taveras changed his lawyer and then "immediately" retracted his prior testimony to provide information that implicated all three defendants regarding their alleged "efforts to delete security camera footage."
...
After a court filing showed that Taveras changed his testimony in order to avoid charges himself, McAuliffe suggested that Nauta and De Oliveira's lawyers may want to "reevaluate" if not cooperating with the inquiry is in the best interest of their clients.

That was the sole purpose for casting a wide net. People will say almost anything to feel from going to prison…
Do you have anything substantive to say or are you here just to throw around insults? If the latter, I might remind you to review Jim’s recent post on insults and name calling.
For the third time today....

This is not DU!
Discuss the issues all you wish, BUT DO NOT MAKE IT PERSONAL!
Remember to use common courtesy when posting to FR. Leave off the insults and flames, name calling, etc.
We are conservatives. Be respectful to your debate adversary (fellow FReeper). For example, do not accuse them of being a “Putinista”, “commrade”, “murderer”, “baby-killer”, etc, just because he may have a difference of opinion whether or not the US government should be involved in a controversial foreign war where we were not attacked.
Likewise, things in the presidential primary are getting over-heated. We want to be sure we come out of this with a Republican president, house and senate. The only way we can accomplish that is to unify the Republican Party. We can’t destroy our own candidates. Whoever it is will need to pull us ALL together. Keep the ultimate goal in sight - Freedom! We are not here to fight each other. We are here as allies to fight for God, family, country, and FREEDOM! As William Wallace said in Brave Heart, “Unite the clans!”.
Your personal favorite may be Ron DeSantis, mine happens to be President Trump. But if DeSantis receives the nomination, I’ll support him, as I hope most other FReepers will.
Incidentally, we are getting way too much profanity. This is NOT DU, this is NOT CNN - (in deep voice) this IS FR!
Finally, if someone says STOP, then STOP! If someone asks you to take them off your ping list, then take them off! If someone asks you to stop posting to them, the adult and polite thing to do is to accommodate them.
Thank you all very much, and God bless you.
I think he is pretty much all set karen.
I made my point. Everyone knows who and what you are.
Thank you for posting that, I was trying to find the original link as there are a number Freepers going off the rails today with unnecessary insults and name calling.
Prosecutorial fearmongerig. The co-defendants can’t flip when Trump has nothing to hide and they have no evidence to expose.
Donald Trump Co-Defendants would have a much better chance at law if judge Roy Bean were residing.
Democrat democracy isn’t just for anyone you have to be a club member and keep the palms greased.
What a circus.

Any questions?

“The co-defendants can’t flip when Trump has nothing to hide and they have no evidence to expose.”
Well, the prosecution would be happy to have them just make something up too. In fact they would probably be happy to help if they cannot think of anything to invent. Just sign your name on this pretyped statement....
Well, I assume they’re trying to pull another witness tampering, say anything to ‘get’ President Trump effort, similar to the J6 Kangaroo committee that had President Trump supposedly fighting the SS for control of the steering wheel in DC. The commies don’t care as long as they can get somebody, anybody to claim something they can try to convict President Trump on. They are terrified of him, it’s clear.
Great rules of conduct, but you are going to have to get serious about enforcing them.
Yeah, looks like the professional “flippers” are coming out - en force!!!! https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/09/enrique-tarrio-tells-all-after-sentencing-feds-asked/?fbclid=IwAR0POKfOV9LRloig2vgnQerrL_wjV3WfgKZCHzB86kcOvuIrBRsW9iCYy4U
Nailed it Joe. Reno on his jihad because RDS is such a total fail.
