New details from the affidavit used in the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago suggest that former President Donald Trump may have authorized a false statement his attorneys made to the DOJ, legal analysts said.
Experts zeroed in on a statement in the affidavit an attorney for Trump gave to investigators when they visited Mar-a-Lago to retrieve government records in June.
The details had previously been redacted, but were made public Tuesday on a federal magistrate's orders.
Investigators believe that Trump may have violated laws including the Espionage Act in holding onto the records, and also that Trump and his aides may have obstructed the FBI's investigation.
