The 38th in the indictment count alleges Nauta, a military veteran, made false statements and representations during an FBI interview.
Nauta, whose full name is Waltine Torre Nauta, is from Guam and enlisted in the Navy in 2001. From 2012 to 2021, he served in Washington, D.C. as part of the Presidential Food Service, according to his service record.
Nauta was a valet to Trump, according to the indictment, a role that is similar to a personal assistant or"body man." Nauta would have worked closely with Trump in the White House and traveled with him, and continued to work for Trump after his presidency. According to the indictment, Nauta and other employees moved the boxes around Mar-a-Lago several times, and even sent photos of boxes toppled over. Some boxes were allegedly loaded into Nauta's car and brought to a truck that then brought them to the National Archives, also referred to as NARA.
