Trump, Nauta plead not guilty to additional classified documents charges

Former President Trump and his longtime aide, Walt Nauta, pleaded not guilty Thursday to additional charges in the classified documents case, according to multiple reports.

Driving the news: Special counsel Jack Smith brought additional charges against Trump in a superseding indictment last month, alleging that he sought to delete video footage at Mar-a-Lago in an attempt to obstruct the federal probe.

Trump pleaded not guilty in court papers last week on the new charges, but the magistrate judge formally accepted his plea on Thursday.

The arraignment of Mar-a-Lago club property manager, Carlos De Oliveira, who was also charged in the superseding indictment, was postponed until next week, according to multiple reports.
