"Former federal prosecutor indicted for stealing copies of unreleased Jack Smith report
Carmen Lineberger is accused of sending the report to her private email account, in violation of Judge Aileen Cannon’s order.
A former Justice Department prosecutor has been charged with sending herself copies of an unreleased volume of special counsel Jack Smith’s report on his investigation into President Donald Trump.
Carmen Lineberger, 62, entered a not guilty plea to four charges related to stealing and concealing government records in federal court in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Wednesday. She was released on her own recognizance, court records show.
The indictment says Lineberger, who was the managing assistant U.S. attorney in Fort Pierce, Florida, received a copy of the restricted Smith report volume by email last year and sent it and other internal DOJ messages to her personal Hotmail and Gmail accounts.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon has barred public release of that volume of Smith’s report, which discusses his investigation into the presence of classified documents at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home."
Too late for a Biden admin auto pen pardon. She's have to go to trial.
