The discovery led the US Coast Guard to announce the ship likely imploded, killing all five passengers aboard. The Odysseus 6 discovered debris from the Titan submersible about 1,600 feet from the wreckage of the Titanic on Thursday, according to the US Coast Guard. All five are presumed dead after the “catastrophic implosion” of the submersible, according to the US Coast Guard. On Friday, Coast Guard Rear Adm. John Mauger said, “I don’t have an answer for prospects at this time” when asked about recovering remains. A Coast Guard official said Thursday that authorities are discussing how an investigation would unfold since the implosion took place in international waters.

The DOJ indicted Donald Trump for his handling of classified government documents. Prosecutors say they need more time to give Trump's lawyers security clearance to review documents. They said the delay was necessary because the case involves classified information and will require Trump's lawyers to obtain security clearances, a process that is underway. The Justice Department said this week that it has begun sharing evidence relevant to the case with the Trump legal team. The Justice Department said Trump's lawyers do not object to pushing the trial date back.

Prosecutors from special counsel Jack Smith's office have requested that former President Donald Trump's criminal trial for alleged mishandling of classified documents be delayed until December, according to a court filing on Friday. But prosecutors said more time is needed before the trial can begin and requested that the trial be delayed until Dec. 11. Trump is accused of mishandling classified documents that he took with him after leaving the White House. The Classified Information Procedures Act provides a set of guidelines to allow classified documents to be used in a trial. The filing detailed a proposed timeline to allow both sides to litigate how classified documents will be addressed during the trial.

WASHINGTON, June 23 (Reuters) - U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith on Friday asked a federal judge to delay the start of former President Donald Trump's trial on charges of willful retention of classified government records and obstruction of justice until Dec. 11, a court filing showed. On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon set an initial trial date of Aug. 14. But Smith, in the filing, said the Aug. 14 date "would deny counsel for the defendant or the attorney for the Government the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation." In the filing, Smith said the start of the trial should be delayed so Trump's lawyers have time to get security clearances to review classified documents. He said Trump's lawyers do not oppose scrapping the Aug. 14 trial start date but he anticipates they will file a motion opposing the prosecution's proposed schedule.

CNN —What was supposed to be a 10-hour journey to the Titanic shipwreck ended in tragedy, with all five passengers on the missing submersible killed in a catastrophic implosion. An underwater implosion refers to the sudden inward collapse of the vessel, which would have been under immense pressure at the depths it was diving toward. It’s unclear where or how deep the Titan was when the implosion occurred, but the Titanic wreck sits nearly 13,000 feet (almost 4,000 meters) below sea level. The submersible was about 1 hour and 45 minutes into the roughly 2 hour descent when it lost contact. But the submersible had only been equipped with 96 hours of oxygen, setting Thursday as a key target to locate and retrieve the submersible.

It's likely too risky to try recovering the remains of Titan's passengers, an ROV expert said. The search for the sub near the Titanic has already cost millions; recovery would cost even more. The five passengers on the Titan sub were British billionaire Hamish Harding, French submersible pilot Paul-Henri Nargeolet, British businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman, and the CEO of OceanGate Expeditions Stockton Rush. The Titan submersible had made three previous trips down to the wreckage. But shortly after the vessel vanished Sunday, key questions began emerging about the design and operation of the Titan.

When Judge Aileen M. Cannon assumed control of the case stemming from former President Donald J. Trump’s indictment for putting national security secrets at risk, she set the stage for the trial to be held with a regional jury pool made up mostly of counties that Mr. Trump won handily in his two previous campaigns. She signaled that the trial would take place in the federal courthouse where she normally sits, in Fort Pierce, at the northern end of the Southern District of Florida. The region that feeds potential jurors to that courthouse is made up of one swing county and four others that are ruby red in their political leanings and that Mr. Trump won by substantial margins in both 2016 and 2020. “For years, it’s been a very conservative venue for plaintiffs’ lawyers,” said John Morgan, a trial lawyer who founded a large personal injury firm. Describing the various counties that feed into Fort Pierce, he said, “It is solid, solid Trump country.”

WASHINGTON, June 20 (Reuters) - U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon has set an initial trial date of Aug. 14 in Florida on former President Donald Trump's federal charges of willful retention of classified government records and obstruction of justice, according to a court order on Tuesday. The Justice Department's special counsel in the case, Jack Smith, promised a speedy trial after a 37-count indictment charging Trump with willfully retaining classified government records and obstructing justice. Trump's lawyers and a U.S. Justice Department spokesperson did not immediately return requests for comment. The order from U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart also put strict conditions on Trump's access to the materials. Reporting by Susan Heavey, Jacqueline Thomsen, Sarah N.

The federal judge presiding over the prosecution of former President Donald J. Trump in the classified documents case set an aggressive schedule on Tuesday, ordering a trial to begin as soon as Aug. 14. In each of four other criminal trials she has overseen that were identified in a New York Times review, she has initially set a relatively quick trial date and later pushed it back. The early moves by Judge Cannon, a relatively inexperienced jurist who was appointed by Mr. Trump in 2020, are being particularly closely watched. She disrupted the documents investigation last year with several rulings favorable to the former president before a conservative appeals court overturned her, saying that she never had legitimate legal authority to intervene. Still, he said, Judge Cannon appeared to be showing that she intended to do what she could to push the case to trial quickly.

Former U.S. President Trump appears on classified document charges after a federal indictment at Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. United States Courthouse, alongside his attorney Chris Kise in Miami, Florida, U.S., June 13, 2023 in a courtroom sketch. A Florida federal judge on Tuesday scheduled the criminal trial of former President Donald Trump for his alleged illegal retention of classified government documents to begin Aug. 14. If the trial date holds, it would come just over a week before the first GOP presidential debate of the campaign. In the order Tuesday, Judge Aileen Cannon told Department of Justice prosecutors and lawyers for Trump to file all pretrial motions by July 24. Cannon also ordered that all hearings in the case, including the trial, will be held in U.S. District Court in Fort Pierce, Florida.

A district judge in Florida wants Trump's classified documents trial to start August 14. Pre-trial motions are due at the end of July, and the trial will occur in Fort Pierce, Florida. Cannon, the Trump-appointed judge presiding over the trial, released an order saying she expects the trial to start August 14 "or as soon thereafter as the case may be called" and to last two weeks. Cannon on Tuesday asked the defense and prosecutors to file any pre-trial motions before July 24. The trial is set to be held at the courthouse in Fort Pierce, Florida — the same courthouse where Cannon, 42, typically works.

Washington CNN —A magistrate judge has signed off on special counsel Jack Smith’s request that former President Donald Trump and his co-defendant Walt Nauta be prohibited from disclosing information the discovery handed over to the defense in the criminal case Trump and Nauta now face from the special counsel. The order follows the language that Smith proposed and it governs the unclassified discovery the defense will receive. The classified materials federal investigators have collected, which are at the heart of Smith’s case, will be subjected to their own procedures for the case. The two Trump attorneys who have made appearances in the case confirmed Friday to US District Judge Aileen Cannon, who will preside over the case, that they have been in contact with the Justice Department about expediting their security clearances. Trump faces 37 counts in the indictment brought by Smith earlier this month, which alleges that he illegally retained national defense information and that he concealed documents and obstructed the Justice Department investigation into the handling of those materials.

Prosecutors in Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago case asked the judge to keep evidence secret. In the filing, the team of prosecutors asked US District Judge Aileen Cannon, who's overseeing the case, to issue a protective order that would keep discovery material secret. During the discovery process, prosecutors share evidence with lawyers on the other side, letting them prepare a defense in the case. "The materials also include information pertaining to ongoing investigations, the disclosure of which could compromise those investigations and identify uncharged individuals," Friday's motion says. Lawyers for Trump and Nauta "have no objections" to the proposed protective order, according to prosecutors.

Opinion | Can Judge Cannon Preside Fairly Over the Trump Trial?

JahnsHemet, Calif.To the Editor:I was as disgusted as anyone by Judge Aileen M. Cannon’s ruling last year awarding Donald Trump a special master to review documents seized by the Justice Department. I think it would be appropriate for her to recuse herself based on the appearance of bias she has created, along with the fact of being a Trump appointee. We liberals have no right to criticize the polarized state of American politics if we refuse to examine and report on both sides of any given issue fairly. Steve BenkoSouthport, Conn.To the Editor:We should think very carefully about whether Judge Aileen M. Cannon has a conflict of interest in adjudicating a criminal matter involving the president who appointed her. While other judges have presided over cases involving the presidents who appointed them, this one presents unprecedented issues of law, politics and legal ethics.

Cannon’s order reflects how the case concerns highly sensitive, classified materials – adding another layer of complexity to the high-stakes, first-of-its-kind federal prosecution of a former president. The new order also puts additional pressure on the Trump effort to expand the legal team representing him in the case. The local rules for the Florida court where the case was filed require that Trump have counsel barred in the state. Blanche previously had a clearance and a member of Kise’s legal firm who will be assisting him in the case has a security clearance now, the source told CNN. Trump is still looking to add another attorney to his team who will also need to obtain a clearance.

In other words, the panel chastised her for not properly applying the law and for not treating Mr. Trump like any other criminal defendant. Other legal experts have asked if Judge Cannon has the judicial chops to handle a case of this type and magnitude. She has, after all, been a federal judge for only some two and a half years and has never tried a case involving the theft of classified documents. History shows that Trump-appointed judges have not given him any special treatment when he has defied the rule of law. Nearly every Trump-appointed judge (including his Supreme Court appointees) denied Mr. Trump’s litigation efforts to further his falsehood that the 2020 presidential election was rigged.

The brief order by the federal judge, Aileen M. Cannon, instructed the lawyers to reach out to the Litigation Security Group at the Justice Department by Tuesday to “expedite” the process for getting a clearance. Neither of the lawyers who appeared with Mr. Trump at his arraignment in Miami on Tuesday — Todd Blanche and Christopher M. Kise — have active security clearances, but both have been in touch with the Justice Department about getting them, a person familiar with the matter said. Mr. Blanche, a former federal prosecutor, used to have one, and a member of Mr. Kise’s law firm has one now, the person said. That member will be assisting in Mr. Trump’s case. Any lawyer representing Mr. Trump — and he is still considering candidates — is going to need an active clearance because he has been accused of illegally taking 31 documents with him when he left office, many of which were classified as top secret, one of the country’s most sensitive security designations.

This is the first time a former American president has been arraigned on federal charges. Jill Filipovic Courtesy of Jill FilipovicFormer President Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to all 37 federal charges at a federal courthouse in Miami on Tuesday afternoon. The indictment says that Trump willfully retained national security information, violated the Espionage Act more than 30 times, and conspired to obstruct justice, among other crimes. What is clear, though, is that this case will be a test of the US justice system and the strength of national institutions in a (for now) post-Trump America. Any president who is found to have used national security documents for bragging rights and flouted American law must be held accountable.

To the Editor:Re “Trump Thrives in a Broken System. He’ll Get Us There Soon,” by Thomas L. Friedman (column, June 14):Mr. Friedman is exactly right. Donald Trump will finally be tried in a federal court of law after being indicted. We have to believe that nobody — nobody meaning even an ex-president and possible future president — is above the law. Almost beyond belief, Judge Aileen M. Cannon has been randomly selected to preside over the court proceedings.

Aileen M. Cannon, the Federal District Court judge assigned to preside over former President Donald J. Trump’s classified documents case, has scant experience running criminal trials, calling into question her readiness to handle what is likely to be an extraordinarily complex and high-profile courtroom clash. Judge Cannon, 42, has been on the bench since November 2020, when Mr. Trump gave her a lifetime appointment shortly after he lost re-election. She had not previously served as any kind of judge, and because about 98 percent of federal criminal cases are resolved with plea deals, she has had only a limited opportunity to learn how to preside over a trial. A Bloomberg Law database lists 224 criminal cases that have been assigned to her, and a New York Times review of those cases identified four that went to trial. In all, the four cases added up to 14 trial days.
