"Trump Documents Case Raises Concerns of Ongoing Investigations"

Court papers filed by federal prosecutors in the case against former President Donald Trump suggest that evidence they are poised to give the defense as part of the normal process of discovery contained information about "ongoing investigations" that could "identify uncharged individuals." The papers did not explain what those other inquiries might be or whether they were related to the indictment detailing charges against Mr. Trump of illegally retaining dozens of national defense documents and obstructing the government's efforts to get them back. The reference to continuing investigations was the first overt suggestion that other criminal cases could emerge from the work that the special counsel Jack Smith has done in bringing the Espionage Act and obstruction indictment against Mr. Trump in Miami last week.
