Donald Trump's aide Walt Nauta pleaded not guilty Thursday morning in Miami federal court on charges he helped the former president hide classified documents stashed at his Mar-a-Lago resort.
Shortly before his 11 a.m. EST arraignment, Nauta was able to hire local attorney Sasha Dadan, a 34-year Republican criminal defense attorney who ran in 2018 for the Florida House. Nauta also showed up to the courthouse in-person for his arraignment at around 10:20 a.m. local time.BREAKING: Trump Aide Walt Nauta arrives at a Florida courthouse to be arraigned on charges in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.
