Judge says some of DOJ’s affidavit used to obtain Mar-a-Lago search warrant can be unsealed

A federal judge said that parts of the affidavit used to obtain a search warrant for former President Donald Trump‘s resort home Mar-a-Lago can be unsealed, NBC News reported Thursday.

The decision from U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart came after the Department of Justice asked him not to unseal the highly sensitive document, which details the government’s view that it had probable cause to believe the search of Mar-a-Lago would turn up evidence of illegality.
