CNN —
Special counsel Jack Smith said in a court filing Tuesday that former President Donald Trump has made “daily extrajudicial statements that threaten to prejudice the jury pool” in the 2020 election subversion case.
The allegation arose in a court fight that remains largely under seal, so additional details are not public. The brief reference to Trump’s statements affecting the jury pool at the Washington, DC, courthouse came in a public filing in the federal criminal case.
Smith’s office has been sparring with Trump’s team over how much of the underlying sealed dispute should be made public.
Prosecutors tried earlier Tuesday to file
