Carmen Mercedes Lineberger, a former managing assistant U.S. attorney in Florida, is facing felony charges for allegedly emailing herself a sealed investigative report concerning Donald Trump. The indictment states that Lineberger received the report in early 2025 as part of a federal criminal investigation and later sent it from her Department of Justice (DoJ) email to her personal account in December 2025. To disguise the document, she renamed it 'Bundt_Cake_Recipe.pdf' before saving it on her government-issued computer. The report, which is characterized as blocked from public release by U.S. District Judge Aileen M. Cannon, is linked to investigations led by special counsel Jack Smith regarding Trump's handling of White House documents and efforts to obstruct the 2020 election. Both investigations were dropped after Trump was re-elected. Lineberger's actions have drawn scrutiny, especially as advocacy groups push for the report's unsealing. If convicted of theft and document alteration, she faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison.
