An associate of Donald Trump was charged alongside the former president in the indictment returned Thursday in the investigation into the handling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, according to people familiar with the matter.

A former military valet, Walt Nauta, who went to work at the Florida resort after working in the Trump White House, has been a key figure in the investigation into the former president’s handling of classified documents at the resort. A lawyer for Nauta on Friday declined to comment.

Trump was charged on Thursday with seven counts, including violations of the Espionage Act, which bars the misuse of classified information, as well as obstruction and false statements. It isn’t clear what charges the other person indicted would face.

[I predicted that the attorney who had the attorney-client privilege stripped in this case for participating in the obstruction would be the other figure indicted. Evan Corcoran may still not be out of the line of fire, but at least so far the special counsel isn’t charging him. — Ed]
