Tuesday 9 August 2022 08:55 PM Trump lawyer at Mar-a-Lago amid raid says FBI was 'respectful,' claims DOJ may ... trends now
An attorney for Donald Trump who was present when FBI agents were seizing documents from Mar-a-Lago claims the Department of Justice (DOJ) may pursue 'bogus charges' against her boss in a pair of Tuesday interviews.
Lawyer and TV host Christina Bobb made the accusation without offering any specific details during a pair of interviews on far-right, Trump-friendly networks the day after the former president's home was raided by federal agents.
The unannounced operation was linked to records sought by the National Archives, his son, Eric Trump, told Fox News that night.
Bobb told Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN) that agents were 'respectful' but insisted no crime on the former president's part.
'They were respectful and as far as I can tell, put everything back where they found it except for what they took. But, yeah, I mean, they went through everything,' she said, adding: 'There was a lot of them.'
'There are no crimes committed, there are no crimes here,' Bobb later said.
When asked on Real America's Voice whether evidence could have been 'planted,' Bobb replied: 'There is no security that something wasn't planted.'
'I'm not saying that's what they did,' the attorney followed-up.
Bobb also confirmed to RSBN that hardly anyone was present on the grounds save for herself and 'at least one other' attorney.
Christina Bobb, a lawyer for Trump and a host on One America News Network, admitted that some of the documents federal agents recovered could be 'classified' but quickly added that she believes they are not of any consequence
'Nobody really expected this to happen because President Trump himself, as well as his legal team, have been very cooperative with everything the FBI and the Department of Justice have wanted to do',
'They've allowed the FBI and DOJ on the premises before. you know, let them see whatever it was that they wanted to see. So the raid was really unnecessary and a bit overkill considering we had never withheld anything from them in the past.'
