Former President Donald Trump and the Department of Justice have each proposed two candidates to serve as special master over items seized in last month's Mar-a-Lago raid.
The Department of Justice suggested retired Judge Barbara Jones of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and retired Judge Thomas Griffith of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Trump is proposing Raymond Dearie, former chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, and former Florida Deputy Attorney General Paul Huck.
Whoever is appointed will have a daunting task ahead of them. A former DOJ official told Business Insider that job would be"the worst thing in the world." "No one wants this assignment," former U.S. attorney Barbara McQuade told the outlet."It's time consuming. It's thankless. You're damned if you do, damned if you don't."Earlier this week, a judge approved Trump's request for a special master, which the DOJ is appealing.
