DOJ Opposes Making Details of Mar-a-Lago Search Warrant Public

-

The has come out in opposition to making the details of its search warrant's probable cause affidavit public. The affidavit lays out the arguments investigators successfully made to a federal judge, convincing him they had probable cause to execute a search warrant at .

According to the DOJ's filing, unsealing the search warrant's probable cause affidavit would jeopardize the ongoing criminal investigation into the former president by providing specific details about the case and its likely direction. Besides implicating “highly classified materials,” DOJ officials also worry the affidavit's release will hurt efforts to interview witnesses, given the unprecedented increase in threats to federal .

The Hill has more on the latest developments:

Federal prosecutors submitted a court filing opposing any efforts to unseal the document laying out probable cause for the search. The filing came just days after they agreed to release a copy of the warrant itself as well as a receipt listing the materials that were seized during the search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate.

“The affidavit supporting the search warrant presents a very different set of considerations,” the filing reads. “There remain compelling reasons, including to protect the integrity of an ongoing law enforcement investigation that implicates national security, that support keeping the affidavit sealed.”

Prosecutors typically submit affidavits from law enforcement officials when seeking a judge's authorization for a search warrant. These documents are meant to provide an overview of evidence collected during an investigation that would support the probable cause needed to obtain a warrant under the Fourth Amendment.

The court filing submitted Monday — which was signed by Jay Bratt, the head of the DOJ's counterintelligence office, and Juan Antonio Gonzalez, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida — argued that disclosing the affidavit used to secure the Mar-a-Lago warrant would cause “significant and irreparable damage to this ongoing criminal investigation.

“As the Court is aware from its review of the affidavit, it contains, among other critically important and detailed investigative facts: highly sensitive information about witnesses, including witnesses interviewed by the ; specific investigative techniques; and information required by law to be kept under seal pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e),” DOJ officials noted.

  1. Only ones Biden family are not out of touch with are the Chinese communist party, Central Intelligence Agency Director William Burns formerly headed an influential D.C. think tank while undisclosed Chinese Communist Party individuals Chinese government ties.

  2. They won’t release the affidavit because it is full of LIES; just like the ones for James Rosen and Carter Page! Their “JV judge” is a Trump-hating hack who would sign anything!

  3. Given the distrust many have of this administration, especially of the DOJ, and theFBI, it would behoove them to be open, otherwise it looks corrupt and politically evil. It creeps me out to know the FBI were pawing through Mrs. Trumps clothes…. Shame on them.

    • Dont’cha know? Dementia Joe is implying he’s going to run again! I doubt he’ll be able to do it as his dementia will be too bad by then.

  4. That affidavit will never see the light of day. Because, the information contained there-in serves as justification for another failed witch hunt. If revealed, it gives everyone has a foxhole to jump in except the author. So, it’s lost to the world.

  5. Of course it’s all illegal bs. That’s why the dij don’t want an independent investigation into the whole matter.

  6. We knew Merrick Garland’s assertion that the DOJ would be transparent was a lie and the DOJ just proved it again.

  7. We don’t give a damn what the DOJ thinks…..they’re supposed to work for Americans….not Mr. Biden. DOJ has proven over and over again that they are entrenched in “Political Hackery” and they are as corrupt as Mr. Biden is and that’s an understatement. Make the details of the Mar-a-Lago Raid “search warrant” available to the public NOW!!!!!

  8. I am a student and I do work part time on this website to meet my needs. One who is jobless or want to earn more money for himself, (buc-49) should must try this because this is really very easy and less time consuming and also advantageous without investing any amount. This is what I do.. https://cashliberty7.blogspot.com/

  9. This is SOP for the DEEP STATE and demorat party. They take some spurious and suspect information — Russian collusion hoax, whistleblower hearsay about a Ukrainian phone call — and use that to get a corrupt judge to approve a warrant or begin an impeachment process. If Republicans gain control of Congress after the midterms — and they better because the country is doomed if they don’t — I want to see investigations that actually reveal the corruption of the government and its agencies, the corruption of social media, the corruption of the MSM and especially the corruption of the demorats who have put the country through hell the past six years.

  10. Once again we see what a complete partisan jerk the Attorney General is. He deserves to be impeached in 2023.

  11. Why????? What ever could they be hiding or lying about again????? They have made their bed and now they must experience the wrath of WE THE PEOPLE!

  12. Hmm…they don’t allow anyone to see what they removed.
    They don’t allow anyone to know what they removed.
    They don’t allow anyone to know what was in the affidavit.
    They helped with the Russia Collusion propaganda.
    They didn’t prosecute Killary or raid her house regarding the email server and stuff.
    They expect us to believe them when they haven’t released information on Epstein’s evidence and haven’t gone after Hunter.
    No…we are done with it.

  13. This all BS in the government side. We the people are entitled to any and information concerning this political weaponization of government agencies against whom see as adversaries and challengers to their dictatorial reign.

  14. We now live in a country run illegally by jackboot, Gestapo thugs. Thank you Dementia Joey from Scranton.

  15. Where’s the transparency, garland? The people with common sense know you were on a fishing expedition, looking for ANYTHING to get Trump. That’s OUR transparency. We can see right through you.

    What a pathetic excuse for a human being.

  16. As I think we all know by now, Donald Trump’s home was attacked in the wee small hours of the night by Biden’s private police force the FBI. There are a few things we the people of the U.S. should be told. First, when Bill Clinton left the White House he reportedly stole that building blind and did a lot of vandalizing and damage. Why was he not investigated and not ordered to return what he took? Barak Obama committed treason when he shipped a great deal of money in unmarked currency in an unmarked aircraft to an obscure airfield in Iran, a sworn enemy of our country. What Obama did was and still is punishable by death. Why wasn’t that investigated? Hillary Clinton used a computer and cellphones that were not secure to pass on classified information. She then destroyed the cellphones and deleted everything from the computer to cover her wrong doing. Why wasn’t she investigated exactly the same as Trump? I n fact, why didn’t they all have their homes attacked by the FBI the same way Mar A Lago was attacked? Then we have Biden who violated the oath he took when sworn in as president. He opened the southern border to any and all who want to come into the U.S. illegally. No telling how many terrorists and troublemakers are in the U.S. now. Do we have a double standard when it comes to justice? YOUR DAMN RIGHT WE DO!
