The former president of the United States did not admit his guilt in any of the 37 points. No travel restrictions were imposed on Trump.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump did not admit his guilt in the federal criminal case, lying to officials who illegally kept national security documents after leaving office and tried to return them. The American politician appeared before Jonathan Goodman in federal court in Miami on Tuesday, June 13.
Trump was allowed to leave the court without any conditions or movement restrictions, and no bail was required. According to Goodman's decision, Trump was barred from communicating with potential witnesses in the case.
Former Trump aide Walt Nauta, who was accused of the case, came to court with the former president, but did not have to confess to his guilt until June 27, because he does not yet have a local lawyer.
The former White House leader was indicted on 37 counts as part of a special investigation that began after the Federal Bureau of Investigation raided his Florida residence.
Trump is accused of violating the Espionage Act and other laws in 2021 in connection with the fact that he did not hand over confidential documents to the National Archives after leaving the presidency.
Officials believe he conspired to obstruct investigators and knowingly discussed national security secrets with unauthorized persons.
