Mar-a-Lago employee Carlos De Oliveira, who faces criminal charges in the case regarding former President Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents, made his first appearance in federal court in Florida Monday.
De Oliveira, the property manager and former valet at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago golf club, did not enter a plea because he has not yet retained counsel licensed in Florida, and he was released on a $100,000 signature bond, which requires no money be given to the court up front. De Oliveira was read the charges against him — conspiracy to obstruct justice; altering, destroying, mutilating or concealing an object; corruptly altering, destroying, mutilating, or concealing a document, record or other object; and false statements and representations.
He was required by the court to turn in his passport in the next 48 hours and cannot leave Florida without prior authorization. He must also follow the same no-contact order issued to Trump and Walt Nauta, the personal aide to Trump who has been charged as a co-conspirator in the case.
