Special counsel Jack Smith has added three more felony charges to former President Donald Trump’s classified documents case. The charges stem from an alleged incident where Trump asked a Mar-a-Lago employee to delete security camera footage sought by investigators. Carlos De Oliveira, the new defendant in the case, is accused of attempting to destroy security footage on Trump’s property.
Hostin predicted that De Oliveira will “sing like a canary” now that he’s a defendant in the case. “Once you’re faced with a federal indictment, even if it’s one charge, that’s up to 10 to 20 years in prison, and he ain’t gonna spend 10 to 20 years in prison for Donald Trump,” she said.
Alyssa Farah Griffin expressed doubt that the defendant would “break with Trump” since Trump is covering the legal bills. However, she emphasized the importance of letting the justice system work while holding the former president accountable in the voting box.

In July, U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon scheduled the start of the jury trial for May 20, 2024. Farah Griffin raised concerns about the composition of the jury, stating, “This is a Miami jury. Just statistically, there will be Trump supporters on this jury. It’s not impossible that there could be a hung jury in this case. Even if it’s a rock-solid prosecution, the jury ends up deciding it. It could also get delayed. The court date for this is May 2024. Add a new defendant, new information, that could get punted to way late into next year,” she said.
