In reply to the discussion: Did TFG disseminate classified intel [View all]onenote
(45,962 posts)DOJ filed an inventory with the district court stating that 103 classified documents were found in the search of Mar-a-Lago of which 18 were top secret. In the indictment, they indicate that 102 classified documents were found in the search of Mar-a-Lago and 17 were top secret. The indictment bases separate charges on 11 of those 17 or 18 top secret documents. So there were only 6 or 7 of those top secret documents that weren't referenced in the indictment. Another 10 top secret documents that were given to DOJ in June, in response to the subpoena, are referenced in the indictment. We don't know the classification of the other 28 documents turned over in response to the subpoena, but even if all 28 were top secret, it would mean that DOJ obtained 56 or 55 top secret documents in response to the subpoena or in the search and didn't use 34 or 35 of them in the indictment. That's a majority, but not exactly a "vast"majority. And depending on how many of the 38 documents turned over in response to the subpoena actually were top secret, it could be that DOJ has in fact referenced a majority of the top secret documents in the indictment.
If there were other top secret documents seized or turned over to DOJ that were not acknowledged in the inventory or the indictment, DOJ would be in big trouble for providing false or misleading information to the court.
