Just Released Smith Documents Are Heavily Redacted

October 18, 2024 Trump Corruption, Trump Lies

CNN reports:

Special counsel Jack Smith on Friday released a massive trove of heavily redacted documents in his 2020 election subversion criminal case against former President Donald Trump. There are nearly 2,000 pages in a massive trove of documents released Friday, but nearly all of the pages appear to be completely redacted.

The redacted appendices filed on the public docket in the case are related to Smith’s expansive filing from earlier this month that laid out his fullest picture yet of the case against Trump and Smith’s belief that his actions around the 2020 election should not be shielded by presidential immunity.

The Huffington Post reports:

The appendix is split into four parts with sensitive information redacted. The four volumes total more than 1,800 pages. Volume IV contains information that is mostly already in the public record and was obtained through the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Much of this 384-page document is redacted and it doesn’t offer much new to pore over. There are letters and emails already on the record about the strategy to advance fake electors as well as Pence’s letter issued on Jan. 6, 2021, stating that he did not have unilateral authority to determine which electoral slates should be counted.

Bah.
