According to the New York Times, officials are looking for more information from Mar-a-Lago.
It's possible that more classified documents are being kept there.
On August 8, the FBI retrieved a lot of records.
The New York Times reported that the FBI subpoenaed more video from Mar-a-Lago.
It's possible that this is a sign that officials aren't sure if they have recovered all the presidential records from Donald Trump's home.
The August 8 raid in which dozens of boxes of material were removed from Mar-a-Lago resulted in additional footage being sought by officials. Sources told the publication that the officials were still looking at the documents before the search.
A request for comment was not immediately responded to by representatives for Trump. The FBI wouldn't say anything.
Trump's lawyers filed a request for the DOJ to return some documents they claim are privileged.
Trump insisted that he had the right to keep the documents there and that he declassified them while in office. Former White House officials dismissed the suggestion as false.
The FBI searched Mar-a-Lago and Trump characterized it as extensive and intrusive.
An incomplete return of documents led to the raid. The National Archives had requested the return of some boxes.
Trump and other former presidents are not allowed to own any of the records created by their administration.
CNN and other outlets report that a second handover took place in June 2022.
It was only later that new information prompted the DOJ to seek the warrant that was executed on August 8.
Some 300 classified documents were taken from Mar-a-Lago this year.
