Donald Trump's lawyers have for the first time admitted that the former president could face criminal prosecution for his actions with the Mar-a-Lago document stash.
In a letter to Raymond Dearie, the special master - independent adjudicator - appointed to oversee the FBI investigation into the documents, Trump's team on Monday outlined concerns about the inquiry.
Trump's lawyers wrote that they do not want Dearie to force Trump to 'fully and specifically disclose a defense to the merits of any subsequent indictment without such a requirement being evident in the District Court's order' - a statement indicating that Trump or his aides could be criminally charged.
The FBI are investigating how more than 300 classified documents ended up in Trump's Florida estate, and why they were removed from the White House when he left, rather than handed over to the national archives.
