Judge blocks release of special counsel's report on Trump classified documents case

A U.S. judge has blocked the public release of a report by special counsel Jack Smith concerning the criminal case about President Donald Trump's handling of classified documents. The report details the investigation into whether Trump illegally stored sensitive government materials after leaving office.

In a separate legal matter, Ryan Routh, the man who attempted to assassinate Trump, was sentenced to life in prison plus seven years. In another unrelated case, a man who had previously received a pardon from Trump for his role in the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol was found guilty of child abuse.
