Trump hit with new obstruction charges in Mar-a-Lago case: 'The boss' wanted server deleted

Former President Donald Trump faces new charges in connection with his post-presidency handling of classified documents after the special counsel filed a new indictment Thursday.

The federal indictment, filed in the Southern District of Florida, alleges that Trump was part of a scheme to delete security video and that a newly charged defendant — who was identified as a property manager at Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence — told another employee that "the boss" wanted the server deleted.

That employee, Carlos De Oliveira, who was a maintenance supervisor at Mar-a-Lago, was charged Thursday. His lawyer, John Irving, declined to comment.

Court documents say De Oliveira denied that he was involved in moving boxes. "Never saw anything," he told the FBI, according to documents. "Never saw anything," he repeated.
