Trump Considers Allowing FBI to Re-Search His Mar-a-Lago Florida Mansion

MADRID, 20 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The legal team of former United States President Donald Trump would be considering allowing federal FBI agents to return to the former president's Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, in order to satisfy the demands of the Department of Justice, according to CNN. .

Court documents indicate that Trump failed to comply with a subpoena in May ordering the return of all documents marked classified as US authorities are aware that government records are missing, while noting that "efforts were likely made to obstruct the government investigation."

Therefore, one of the options of the Trump legal team -- with the aim of protecting the former president from legal consequences -- is the possibility of allowing federal officials to return to his Mar-a-Lago property to carry out a search probably supervised.

Although no firm decisions have been made so far, Trump's lawyers are weighing how accommodating they should be with the Justice Department, CNN reports.

Although the legal team considers this decision a risk, the former president reportedly recently told his advisers that he is open to easing the pressure to resolve the records case, as the mid-term elections approach.

"He is worn out," sources close to Trump indicate in statements collected by the aforementioned chain. For this reason, solving a case --of the many that he has open-- could help him move forward.

On August 8, a group of FBI agents broke into the luxurious mansion of former President Trump in Palm Beach, Florida, taking around twenty boxes full of folders with classified documentation, some of them with the top secret label.

Among the documents that FBI agents collected during the raid on the Mar-a-Lago residence last month, some confidential files have been found that would even describe the military defenses of a foreign government, including its nuclear capabilities.

Under US law, official White House documents are federal property and must be turned over to the National Archives when a president leaves office.
