Carmen Lineberger, who worked in the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for the Southern District of Florida and managed its Fort Pierce branch, faces charges including theft of government property and concealment of government records. She pleaded not guilty during a court appearance in West Palm Beach. Her attorney did not immediately return messages seeking comment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Prosecutors allege that while serving as a Justice Department prosecutor last December, Lineberger sent a copy of the report that special counsel Jack Smith and his team had prepared, recapping their investigation into Trump\u2019s retention of top-secret documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, to her personal email account.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
