In Florida, Judge Cannon made the crucial determination to reveal specific discovery materials that Smith desired to conceal, emphasizing the “robust presumption of public access in criminal proceedings.”

“Following an independent review of the motion and the full record, the Court determines, with limited exceptions as detailed below, that the Special Counsel has not set forth a sufficient factual or legal basis warranting deviation from the strong presumption in favor of public access to the records at issue,” wrote Cannon.

Federal authorities have charged a prominent Atlantic City, N.J., Democratic political operative with conducting an elaborate mail-in ballot scheme even as politicians sought his counsel for his seemingly uncanny ability to sway close elections.

According to a press release, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in New Jersey has charged Craig Callaway, 64, on “one count of depriving, defrauding, and attempting to deprive and defraud the residents of the state of New Jersey of a fair and impartially conducted election process by the fraudulent procurement, casting, and tabulation of ballots.”

“Holding free and fair elections is a bedrock principle of our democracy. As alleged in the complaint, the defendant attempted to deprive New Jersey residents of a fair election by fraudulently procuring and casting ballots. Today’s charges reflect our office’s commitment to hold to account those who try to undermine the electoral process,” said U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger.

Embattled DA Willis Hit With Fourth Accusation As Trump Case Hangs In Balance

Embattled Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is facing yet another accusation from a co-defendant in her 2020 election interference case against former President Donald Trump.

Co-defendant David Shafer, who served as the Georgia GOP Chairman in 2020 and was a GOP presidential elector for Georgia during the 2020 election, filed a motion in court on Monday, alleging that Willis has been involved in a “pattern of prosecutorial and forensic misconduct.” The motion argues that said behavior should disqualify not only Willis but also her entire office and prosecution staff, Fox News reported.

Shafer’s motion comes after co-defendant Michael Roman alleged that Willis had an “improper” relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, whom she appointed to handle the extensive racketeering case against Trump. Roman has requested the court to disqualify Willis from the case.

In a court filing on Friday, Willis addressed the allegations and acknowledged having a “personal” relationship with Wade. However, she refuted any claims of a conflict of interest. Willis also contended that under Georgia law, for a district attorney to be removed from a case involuntarily, the conflict of interest must be detrimental to the defendant’s case, Fox News added.

Shafer claimed in his Monday filing that Willis has a demonstrated “pattern of prejudicial public statements” about the case via various media interviews and public speeches/ The filing also claimed that in making such statements, she intended to “inject and infect the jury pool” — all of which primarily warrants her removal from the case.

Shafer’s filing included references to when Willis first addressed allegations of her affair last month during remarks made at the Bethel AME Church in Atlanta.
