Special counsel warns: ‘Significant and immediate’ threat to Mar-a-Lago witnesses

The special counsel handling the prosecution of Donald Trump has requested the judge overseeing the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case to reconsider an order that, according to the government, could jeopardize the safety and testimony of over two dozen witnesses.

Trump’s legal team has sought access to unredacted documents, a request contested by special counsel Jack Smith’s attorneys.

Judge Cannon responded on Friday by issuing an order that postponed her initial decision, NBC News reported.
