Carlos De Oliveira, the property manager of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, has pleaded not guilty to charges brought by special counsel Jack Smith in a case alleging Trump mishandled sensitive government documents. De Oliveira and Trump aide Walt Nauta had both previously been unable to enter a plea due to difficulty finding a local lawyer. The next hearing is scheduled for October 5th, and it is unclear if Trump or Nauta will appear in court.

A third person has been charged in the federal case involving classified material taken from the White House to former President Donald Trump's Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago. Carlos De Oliveira, a Mar-a-Lago maintenance worker, is accused of helping Trump's aide Walt Nauta move boxes of classified documents stashed at Mar-a-Lago, and then lying to federal investigators about it. The charges against De Oliveira, Trump, and Nauta could have serious implications, and former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance believes that De Oliveira's charges could be the “final nail in the coffin” for Donald Trump if he flips.
