We knew this was coming.

Via Tamar Hallerman:

Just in: The #Fulton County DA's office is seeking emergency safeguards after recorded interviews featuring four defendants in the #Trump case were leaked to the media

"The release of these confidential video recordings is clearly intended to intimidate witnesses in this case, subjecting them to harassment and threats prior to trial," the DA's office argues.

Here's the full emergency request for a protective order.

The filing notes that earlier today a defense attorney for Harrison Floyd sent an email saying "It was Harrison Floyd's team." Floyd's attorney then followed up saying that was a typo.

@GottaLaff are these the ones we saw on TV last night, do you think?
@deborahh Yes, and we only saw some of them.
@GottaLaff so who is leaking ???
@DoctorDNS The defense.
@GottaLaff I am ill so please excuse my confusion. But why? So far the leaks seem damaging the defence case.
@DoctorDNS Please read the very first toot in the thread again.
@GottaLaff sorry, but I thought Scavino had already been questioned by the GJ.
@GottaLaff
Sanctions for the attorneys? Since no one else had access to them?
(One hopes the DA's office was smart enough to watermark the video to facilitate tracing the leak...)

@GottaLaff

He still roams free, spewing his poison. What will it take?

@NoctisEqui @GottaLaff

A jury conviction.

That's the only thing that will give judges the courage to actually intervene with this guy.

@GottaLaff

Meanwhile, no one is willing to deal with Trump.

@JaneDoeTheFirst @GottaLaff He wouldn’t be doing this if he knows he’ll be free regardless.

This is last ditch desperation. He knows he’s done for.

His only hope now is doing what he’s been doing this past week, forcing his fascist dogma upon others and making these wild threats.

He’s got upwards of four criminal indictments floating about with more to come.

It sadly takes time but at this point it’s hard to claim “nothing is being done”

@stevencworlds @GottaLaff

Sorry, I disagree. There has not been much judicial movement. People are seeing the unfairness. The justice system has nothing new to offer, just falls back on the status quo. Nothing so far has been a real punishment. I know what I see. Excuses.

I find his state of mind irrelevant.

@GottaLaff HMM…I DON’T KNOW HOW AN ATTORNEY CAN BE THIS RECKLESS. I HOPE THERE IS A CONSEQUENCE COMING.
@GottaLaff
As soon as I saw they were leaked, I suspected it was the Trump side. Once again getting the dirt out early to undermine it.

@TCatInReality And to intimidate witnesses.

The prosecution would have zero upside to leaking.
