An attorney who signed statement asserting that former President Trump had returned all classified materials to the government months before the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago search spoke with federal investigators Friday, according to reporting from NBC News.
Christina Bobb signed a June 3 letter as the custodian of records for Trump after his organization was served with a subpoena and asked to return all documents bearing classifications markings.
According to NBC, Bobb spoke with investigators in Washington on Friday, naming two other lawyers involved with the case. She did not speak to the grand jury convened for investigating Trump’s mishandling of the records.
Bobb signed the statement after it was drafted by Trump attorney Evan Corcoran, who is representing the former president in the litigation to secure a special master to review the records seized at his Florida home.
According to NBC, Bobb signed the statement after twice insisting on adding language that said all records had been returned “based upon the information that has been provided to me.”
At the time, Trump’s team turned over 38 additional classified records.
Investigators would go on to secure a warrant to search Mar-a-Lago in August, recovering more than 100 documents with classification markings, as well as more than 10,000 government records.
