Garland plans to release special counsel report on Trump’s Jan. 6 case
Special counsel Jack Smith revealed Wednesday that Attorney General Merrick Garland plans to make public the portion of Smith’s final report pertaining to President-elect Donald Trump’s 2020 election case.
Prosecutors for Smith made the revelation in a response to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals after Trump’s co-defendants in the classified documents case made an emergency request to the court to block the report’s release.
Prosecutors explained that Smith’s report was a two-volume product that corresponded to each of the criminal cases against Trump: the case in Florida related to classified documents and the case in Washington, D.C., related to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and the 2020 election.
While Smith was forced to terminate his cases against Trump after the president-elect’s election victory, Trump’s two co-defendants in the classified documents case, Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira, are still facing charges. The co-defendants’ attorneys argued that the report’s release would be prejudicial to them while they still faced charges.
Prosecutors disagreed, saying volume one of the special counsel report did not pertain to their case at all.
“As discussed, the Final Report comprises two volumes. Volume One, the Election Case, concerns an unrelated prosecution brought by the Special Counsel in Washington, D.C and, accordingly, Volume One does not refer to either Nauta or De Oliveira or describe the evidence or charges against them,” prosecutors wrote.
Federal regulation requires special counsels to compile a confidential report detailing their work once they conclude it, and the attorney general has discretion over whether to release it to the public.
