Federal judge unseals witness list in Trump classified documents case
Judge Aileen Cannon denied the special counsel Jack Smith’s request to keep sealed the list of 84 witnesses in the case charging former President Donald Trump with illegally retaining national security documents. The ruling set the stage for a possible release of some or all of the list of witnesses. Judge Cannon found the special counsel’s request lacking in particulars.
