Taveras, the director of information technology at the Mar-A-Lago resort, was unnamed in the superseding indictment and labeled as “Trump Employee 4” prior to the identification made by anonymous sources cited by CNN and NBC Friday.
Taveras was asked by a fellow employee, Carlos de Oliveira, how to delete security footage that was subpoenaed by federal investigators for their probe into Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents.
Prosecutors allege Oliveira told Taveras that “the boss” (presumably Trump) wanted the footage deleted—a request Taveras said he would not know how to complete, adding he was unsure he would have the rights to delete security camera footage.
