NATA's False and Misleading Statements About the Location and Movement of Boxes

NATA made false and misleading statements as set forth in count 38 of this indictment. Falsely stating that he was not aware of Trump's boxes being brought to Trump's residences for his review before Trump provided 15 boxes to NARA in January 2022. When asked whether he knew where Trump's boxes had been stored before they were in Trump's residence, NATA falsely responded: "I honestly just don't know" The boxes contained 197 documents with classification markings of which 98 were marked secret, 30 were marked top secret, and the remainder remarked confidential.
