The judge in Trump’s classified documents case was not receptive to the defense’s complaints about the 2022 search of Trump’s home.
Judge Aileen Cannon presided over a hearing on Trump's challenge to a 2022 search warrant that authorized a raid of Mar-a-Lago. | U.S. Senate via APFORT PIERCE, Florida — Judge Aileen Cannon appeared highly skeptical on Tuesday of Donald Trump’s bid to throw out evidence seized from his Mar-a-Lago estate.
Cannon indicated that she was unpersuaded by the defense’s arguments, saying that the main issue at hand was whether the warrant had been “particular enough.
Prosecutors argued that the agents who conducted the search did everything by the book. They only seized documents that contained government, presidential or classified records, and didn’t seize anything from the rooms of Melania or Barron, prosecutors said. Harbach maintained that agents had broad leeway to search the property given that the investigation had shown that Trump himself had access to much of the property — with the exception of guest rooms — and that Trump had asked for the documents to be moved around the property. Harbach noted that some of the classified documents were found in a bathroom.
