Donald Trump trial: Carlos De Oliveira, Mar-a-Lago property manager, released on $100K bond
Chief Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres presided over the initial appearance during which De Oliveira did not make a formal plea, and his arraignment was delayed until Aug. 10 in Fort Pierce.De Oliveira was released on a $100,000 bond and ordered to turn over his passport, according to court filings.
Torres also restricted De Oliveira from traveling outside southern Florida unless the court approved, and he is prohibited from speaking about the case with any witnesses the Justice Department has identified, the filings show. De Oliveira appeared with his Washington, D.C.-based attorney John Irving in light of failing to retain a Florida-based lawyer, which led to the delay, according to the filings.
Co-defendant Walt Nauta, a Trump aide, experienced a similar issue with finding an attorney who practiced in Florida before he eventually pleaded not guilty at a delayed arraignment this month.De Oliveira, an employee at Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence, was indicted on Thursday on four felony charges related to allegations he conspired to delete surveillance footage at the property last year to prevent federal investigators from obtaining the footage.
The charges came in a revised indictment filed by special counsel Jack Smith after Smith in June charged Trump with 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information, and both Trump and Nauta with conspiracy to obstruct justice, among other charges. Both were hit with new charges on Thursday related to the allegation of deleting surveillance footage.
