Donald Trump Demands Jack Smith Be Arrested After Document Revelation
Newsweak ^ | 5/04/24 | Ewan Palmer

Posted on 05/04/2024 4:22:59 AM PDT by Libloather

Donald Trump has called for Special Counsel Jack Smith to be arrested after the prosecutor's team said some evidence in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case are no longer in their "original, intact" form.

In a post on Truth Social, the former president demanded "ARREST DERANGED JACK SMITH. HE IS A CRIMINAL!" after federal prosecutors wrote in court filings that there are some boxes where the "order of items within that box is not the same" as they appear in digital scans of materials in the wake of the FBI retrieving them from Trump's Florida resort in August 2022.

Smith's office admitted that this is "inconsistent" with what the government previously told the court when they said that the only changes were some classified documents have been removed and placeholders put in the documents.

The court filings were in response to a request from Walt Nauta, one of Trump's two co-defendants in the federal case who is accused of helping the former president hide the materials from the FBI, for Judge Aileen Cannon for a delay in the trial as his lawyers are struggling to determine precisely where certain documents were retrieved from following the FBI search at Mar-a-Lago in August 2022.

In another Truth Social post, Trump accused Smith of "blatant evidence tampering" and called for the case to be thrown out.

They are harassing Trump. The demoncrat don’t care if they win the cases. They are what is known as “vexatious litigators” in jurisprudence lingo.
IIRC, the vexatious litigators filed cases are scrutinized pre trial for issues that would disqualify the case from moving forward...

No question about it, “evidence tampering” is a serious crime, and always has been.

I love how you folks always try to diminish the 17th amendment being repealed by throwing out the 19th Amendment which we all know will never happen.

"If the deep state can’t steal this election and trump manages to beat the margin of fraud I hope he assigns special counsels that no longer need senate confirmation to go after everyone of these dirtbags."

For that to happen he would need someone like Ken Paxton as his Attorney General. They're aren't that many honest or loyal prosecutors in this country anymore. Unfortunately though, if the RATS steal back the House, they'd be dogging Paxton and President Trump every day they're in office.

I think it came out already that the files they were after were about Hillary and Russia-gate and Obama and Fast & Furious.

There was no chain of custody. As soon as they kicked out Trump’s attorney and turned off the CC cameras at Mar a Lago, the prosecution was defiled.

They were in a hurry and got sloppy.

There will likely be other revelations.

If the chain of evidence is broken, it cannot be admitted.

The opposite could also be true. What have they stolen from those boxes?

Those poor terrorists, traumatically forced to make a “new fish” like him their “beotch” might give up anal rape altogether, and become straight again.

Cannon needs to seat a Jury and then dismiss the case. Then they cant appeal her ruling.

Whatever happens, I don’t want to hear Jack Smith sing.

think what you want ... I didn’t try to diminish anything ... but the 19th is the root cause and repealing the 17th will fix nothing if the 19th is still in place ...

In information theory, the order of the documents is as important as the documents themselves, or maybe more.

Yes. Newsweek has surprised me a few times over the past year or so.
