Special Counsel Jack Smith was at the meeting former President Donald Trump's lawyers had with Department of Justice officials Monday, the New York Times reported.
Several reports revealed Donald Trump's lawyers asked for the meeting, where they requested that investigators do not indict Trump following a grand jury investigation into classified documents the former president is accused of keeping at his Mar-a-Lago home.
Following the meeting, The New York Times revealed that Smith – who has headed the probe – attended the meeting while Attorney General Merrick Garland did not.
