Former U.S. President Donald Trump’s defenses in the Mar-a-Lago document case are getting weaker by the day. A report by The New York Times suggests that Trump was fully aware of the consequences of holding back government documents well ahead of the Federal Bureau Of Investigation's raid of his Florida home.
What Happened: Former White House lawyer Eric Herschmann warned Trump late last year of the potential legal consequences of not returning the government documents that he took while he was in office, said NYT, citing three people familiar with the matter.
