A key witness against former President Donald Trump and his two co-defendants in the Mar-a-Lago documents case recanted previous false testimony and provided new information implicating the defendants after he switched lawyers, special counsel Jack Smith’s office said in a new court filing.
Yuscil Taveras, the director of information technology at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s club in Palm Beach, Florida, changed his testimony last month about efforts to delete security camera video at the club after he changed from a lawyer paid for by Trump’s Save America PAC to a public defender, Tuesday’s filing says.
Ohh. Why’s that?

The main thing I’ve heard is that public defense is offen local to the court house and therefore has a feel for tone, procedure and manner. This might give them a few sympathy points, and even though obv the case itself is far more important, this makes a few things easier still.
