"Trump's Legal Fate May Rest in Florida Court's Hands"

TL;DR Summary
The Justice Department is reportedly planning to bring the bulk of any charges against former President Donald Trump related to his handling of classified documents in South Florida rather than Washington, D.C. The move is seen as an effort to prevent Trump's lawyers from challenging an indictment by saying it had been filed in the wrong place. Witnesses have been called to a federal courthouse in Miami, which is closer to Trump's Mar-a-Lago home, where most of the alleged conduct under scrutiny took place. The decision on where to file charges has significant ramifications, including potential jury bias and security concerns.
