Special Counsel Jack Smith, who was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland to oversee Trump-related cases in the Department of Justice (DOJ), was reportedly the restaurant server, Mar-a-Lago’s housekeeper, and was seen on security footage helping to move the box out of the storage room.

Several of the former president’s attorneys and aides have been subpoenaed to testify before a federal grand jury in the investigation, CNN reported.

The network reported Thursday that communications assistant Margo Martin appeared before a grand jury in a Washington, D.C. case.
