And one person appears to be at the center of this new storm, Trump’s lawyer Christina Bobb, who on June 3 signed a letter (seemingly falsely) testifying that all materials stored at the Florida estate had been handed over to authorities. Bobb has been working at a lawyer to the former president since March this year, when she joined Trump’s political organization Save America.
