DOJ: Trump lawyers found more classified records after Mar-a-Lago raid

Published



Lawyers for Donald Trump uncovered two more rounds of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago home following the controversial 2022 FBI raid at the former president’s resort home in Florida, according to newly unsealed records.

The filings stem from a March 17, 2023 opinion by U.S. District Court Judge Beryl Howell pertaining to subpoenas issued between November 2022 and January 2023 by a grand jury sitting in Washington, D.C., according to the 87-page memorandum opinion. The unearthed filings shed light on additional records uncovered by Trump’s attorneys in the months after FBI agents who executed a raid on the property retrieved troves of classified documents at the center of special counsel Jack Smith‘s indictment.
