Trump in Fort Pierce: Crowd cheered as motorcade left the courthouse about 2:20 p.m.

FORT PIERCE − Former President Donald Trump was in the Alto Lee Adams Sr. U.S. Courthouse during a scheduled hearing Monday in Fort Pierce on his federal classified documents case.

Trump's case was scheduled for a sealed hearing Monday morning at the federal courthouse in Fort Pierce. It was not open to news organizations or to the public.

This was the first time Trump has attended a hearing in this case. He arrived in a motorcade in darkened windows and went behind the courthouse into an underground garage. He left around 2:20 p.m. the same way. He didn't speak to the crowd of over 150 that had gathered.

Trump and his two codefendants, Walt Nauta, his valet and bodyguard, and Carlos de Oliveira, property manager at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, are criminally charged with mishandling federal documents uncovered on Aug. 8, 2022, at Mar-a-Lago.

The sealed hearing will not be open to the public or media.
