An employee of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, Carlos De Oliveira, is expected to make his first court appearance today on charges accusing him of scheming with the former president to hide security footage from investigators.

Prosecutors have not alleged that security footage was actually deleted or kept from investigators.

The latest indictment, unsealed on Thursday, alleges that Trump tried to have security footage deleted after investigators visited in June 2022 to collect classified documents Trump took with him after he left the White House. Video from Mar-a-Lago would ultimately become vital to the government’s case because, prosecutors said, it shows Nauta moving boxes in and out of a storage room — an act alleged to have been done at Trump’s direction and in effort to hide records not only only from investigators but Trump’s own lawyers.

Former President Donald Trump faces three additional charges, including one count of willful retention of National Defense Information, and two counts of obstruction associated with deleting surveillance footage.
