The legal team representing former President Donald Trump turned over additional documents with classified markings and a laptop to federal prosecutors.
Sources familiar with the investigation told CNN that the previously undisclosed handovers, which happened in December and January, included documents with classified markings that were found while searching through Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence.
A folder with classification markings and a laptop belonging to a current aide to the former president were handed to federal agents, sources told ABC News.
Roughly 300 documents with classification markings, including some marked “top secret,” have been recovered from the former president since he left office in January 2021, The Associated Press reported. That number includes 15 boxes of documents taken from Mar-a-Lago by the National Archives in January 2022.
The most recent documents found were in the Mar-a-Lago complex, separate from the storage facility which housed other classified documents that were found in Trump’s possession, ABC News reported.
