TL;DR Summary

Former President Donald Trump has been indicted on charges of mishandling classified documents at his Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago. The indictment includes seven criminal counts and is the first case against a former president by the Justice Department. Trump's legal troubles extend beyond the classified documents case, as he faces additional investigations in New York, Washington, and Atlanta. The indictment adds to deepening legal jeopardy for Trump, who has already been indicted in New York. Trump has insisted that he was entitled to keep the classified documents when he left the White House, and has also claimed without evidence that he had declassified them.
