In January, National Archives officials retrieved 15 boxes of records that had been improperly taken to Mar-a-Lago when Trump left the White House last year -- then, two months ago, federal agents visited Mar-a-Lago to retrieve additional materials that they believed Trump had failed to turn over. Shortly after that visit, an attorney for Trump signed a statement saying that all classified documents at Mar-a-Lago had been turned over to federal investigators, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News."President Trump’s legal team on Monday asked a federal judge to appoint a special master to oversee review of classified documents and other materials the FBI seized from Mar-a-Lago this month and to force the Justice Department to provide a more thorough explanation of why the search was necessary."
But authorities believed Trump continued to possess classified documents, leading to the August 8 raid.
