Judge halts prosecutors from using Trump Mar-a-Lago materials for criminal investigation

A judge blocked federal prosecutors from continuing their criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump's handling of documents until a special master is appointed and has completed his or her work.

"The Court does not find that a temporary special master review under the present circumstances would cause undue delay [to the investigation]," said Judge Aileen Cannon of the Southern District of Florida, granting Trump's motion for a third-party review to look for privileged materials.

Trump's legal team argued its client's constitutional rights were violated and that there may have been privileged documents among those taken by federal officials, and the former president is pursuing the appointment of a special master to review independently the evidence that the FBI seized from his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida last month..............

This is what happens when a REAL Judge gets hold of a flimsy case.

In the court ruling, the judge notes that the anti-Trump action came DIRECTLY from Biden. Seems outrageous? I guess ppl missed the May 2022 letter where National Archives informed Trump that the White House counsel's office removed any privilege claims by Trump!

How labor saving. No need for an actual infraction. Simply remove privilege and voilà! Orange man bad! Send in FBI!

I’ve been through fish markets that smelled better than this setup.

Bilge water on a fishing boat in high summer is perfume compared to this.
