The Department of Justice has submitted a slightly amended list of seized materials and an affidavit that shows what was taken during the 8 August search, despite the unsubstantiated claims by Donald Trump that the agency planted evidence during its search of Mar-a-Lago.
The FBI submitted a first version of the inventory list several weeks ago. The agency said that it filtered out potentially privileged items in the updated version.
I am not aware of any documents or materials seized from the Premises on that date by the FBI that are not reflected in the Revised Detailed Property Inventory other than materials that the Privilege Review Team has not provided to the Case Team, wrote an FBI agent in the affidavit.
The FBI requested that the FBI submit an inventory to give a full and accurate picture of what was obtained in the search, because minor Judge Raymond Dearie, the special master who was appointed to review the documents case.
Dearie's request came after Trump and several allies claimed, without evidence, that the FBI planted items during its search of the Florida mansion.
Dearie gave Trump's lawyers until Friday to provide any evidence to support the accusation that the agency is incorrectly describing any materials. This submission will be Plaintiff's last opportunity to raise any factual dispute as to the completeness and accuracy of the Detailed Property Inventory, Dearie wrote.
