Prosecutors investigating Trump’s hoarding of classified documents want details on a Mar-a-Lago pool flood that inundated the resort's IT room
, the Justice Department issued subpoenas requesting access to the resort’s security footage. Sources indicated to CNN a second request was issued for additional footage following the FBI’s search of the property in August, along with a request to preserve footage in late October.
Sources indicated to CNN that the equipment housing the footage was not damaged by the pool water but investigators, who are exploring potential obstruction charges in the probe against the former president, were suspicious of the episode in the context of previous discoveries. “A maintenance worker.. drained the pool and when that happened, it flooded a room and that room had I.T. Equipment in it that had surveillance footage.. and it's not clear if prosecutors believe that this flood was intentional. It could’ve been a mistake”
