Trump pleads not guilty in classified documents case in Miami federal court

MIAMI — Former President Donald Trump pleaded not guilty Tuesday in Miami federal court to a 37-count indictment accusing him of deliberately keeping at his Palm Beach estate government documents that contained highly sensitive defense, weapons and nuclear information and of obstructing efforts by U.S. authorities to reclaim them.

In a packed courtroom, Trump entered his plea in a historic case marking the first federal prosecution of a former president and a potential hurdle in his renewed quest for the presidency in the 2024 election.

Trump, 76, appeared before a magistrate judge on the 13th floor of the Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. Courthouse in downtown Miami.
