Trump Mar-a-Lago Security Aide Flips and Changes Testimony After Switching Lawyers

A security aide at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, identified as Yuscil Taveras, retracted his previous grand jury testimony and implicated Trump and others in obstruction of justice after switching lawyers. Taveras initially testified that he was unaware of any effort to erase security camera videos, but with his new attorney, he detailed the alleged tampering with evidence related to the investigation of classified information at Trump's Florida home. Taveras' reversal led to new charges against Trump in a superseding indictment. Prosecutors also raised concerns about a conflict of interest between Taveras and another defendant, Walt Nauta, who were both represented by attorney Stanley Woodward.
