Former President Trump's co-defendant Carlos De Oliveira's struggle to find lawyers has been seen as 'delay tactic' by Florida lawyers.
in Florida’s Southern District every year, where attorneys ready to join a blockbuster fight should be easy to come by, former prosecutors and criminal defense attorneys say.
An aerial view of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Fla., in August 2022.“I think that’s comical,” Gregorie said. “Here’s a guy from Palm Beach and he can find a lawyer in Washington, D.C., but in the busiest criminal district in the country, in the Southern District of Florida, he’s not able to find a lawyer? It’s almost funny.”
“We’re very active as defense attorneys,” Reizenstein said. “We don’t just roll over and plead guilty.” But even after the charges were announced in a superseding indictment and De Oliveira made his first court appearance, his defense team was still working to lock down local counsel. Gregorie pointed to potential conflicts with Trump, who promised to find De Oliveira an attorney, according to the updated indictment.
He later approached another employee, identified as Yuscil Taveras, and informed him that “the boss” wanted the video deleted, prosecutors allege. That employee, who was once represented by a lawyer shared with another Trump defendant, sought new counsel last month.
