Judge Aileen Cannon is “disappointed” in Special Counsel Jack Smith, a development that does not bode well for the prosecutor’s hopes to put President Trump on trial for mishandling America’s secrets at Mar-a-Lago.
The reprimand came in a weekend order from Judge Cannon disposing of a range of matters relating to requests for redactions submitted by Messrs. Trump and Smith. The special counsel has, she explains, asserted a “need for continued secrecy over the subject material” found at the Palm Beach manse.
