Trump faces new charges in classified docs superseding indictment

Trump, Nauta and De Oliveira tried to delete video at Mar-a-Lago last summer, prosecutors said in the new indictment.

According to the indictment, in late June 2022, the Justice Department twice communicated that a grand jury was issuing a subpoena requesting video from Mar-a-Lago. Trump's lawyers communicated that to the former president, who then asked to see Nauta, who was scheduled to travel with Trump the next day to Illinois, but he instead flew to Palm Beach, Florida.

Once he was there, Nauta met with De Oliveira. Separately, De Oliveira met with a security employee and told him that "'the boss' wanted the server deleted," the indictment says. The employee said that "he would not know how to do that, and that he did not believe that he would have the rights to do that," the indictment says.

After that exchange, De Oliveira met twice with Nauta near "bushes" on the northern edge of the Mar-a-Lago property. A little while after that, Trump called Oliveira, and they spoke briefly, the indictment says.

The indictment doesn't say whether they were able to delete any video.
