Declassified documents from the US Department of Justice reveal that Donald Trump, the former president, is facing a total of 37 charges related to mishandling classified documents. Hundreds of boxes containing classified papers were stored in his private residence in Florida.

Donald Trump himself announced the charges brought against him by the prosecution on Thursday, June 8. Yesterday, June 9, the US Department of Justice officially confirmed the charges. The case has sparked enormous controversy as many private meetings organized by Trump took place at Mar-a-Lago, and guests may have had access to the boxes containing classified government documents. The indictment also includes information that the former president allegedly shared these documents with third parties on at least two occasions.
