The indictment comes following an investigation into Trump’s storage of sensitive materials at his Mar-a-Lago residence after leaving the White House, which culminated in a raid on the property in August.
The probe and related indictment have been met with criticism by Trump, who denies the allegations, as well as Republican lawmakers and fellow 2024 Republican presidential candidates.
Investigation
According to the Friday indictment, following Trump’s departure from the White House in January 2021, the former president took “scores of boxes” containing classified documents to his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. The indictment alleges Trump was not authorized to possess or retain the sensitive materials.
