According to sources, some investigators involved in the case came to later believe that the closet, which was locked on the day of the search, should have been opened and checked.
Uh, no shit.

They found classified documents at this location. Why the hell would they leave without opening every door? This seems very basic to me...
This whole thing fucking stinks
It's a big club, and you ain't in it!
I explained this whole debacle to my brother because he's too lazy to read an article, and this mf replies "yeah, but masks."
I had no choice but to say fuck, true.
Your brother sounds like a dumbass, my condolences.
He was joking, but yeah, still a dumbass outside of the context lmao
Que?
A spanish idiom: -Where are you going? -I bring apples.
Seems to me like the one locked door and the literal hiding room would be the two most important places to look. How did they ever consider the search done without going in these two rooms?
Jordan Strauss, a former federal prosecutor and former national security official in the Justice Department, called the FBI's alleged failure to search the closet "a bit astonishing."
"You're searching a former president's house. You [should] get it right the first time," Strauss told ABC News.
The FBI fucked up so royally during Trumps junta on every single issue, I wonder if they're not just floor-to-ceiling republiQans but droolingly incompetent.
Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.
The FBI is engaged in their largest all-time case going after the insurrectionists. I'd hardly call them sympathetic to Trump.
How did they ever consider the search done without going in these two rooms?
Some of those that work forces...
This is definitely making me Rage
Rage? Against what? Some kind of machine?
Let's not make music political /s
Changing the locks during a search has to be some kind of crime, wtf?
I think it wasn't during the search. When Trump was initially told to return the documents, he lied to his lawyer that they were all in the basement. The lawyer, thinking that Trump is capable of telling the truth, checks the basement and reports to the FBI that they'll send the documents over. But the documents in the basement are only a small fraction of the documents, and meanwhile, Trump moves the other documents to hide them. It seems this was also the time when he changed the locks
You are right, I completely miss read that. That makes a lot more sense.
"No you guys aren't allowed to search my Epstein room...umm I mean my closets...yeah my closets!"
Seems like further proof that they didn’t comply. Though, I guess as long as they can’t prove he has more docs, it’s really just proof of the FBI's incompetence.
This case is dead anyway, Judge Cannon is on it.
Why outright show the world that you're corrupt when you can just delay proceedings until Supreme Orange dismisses the case against himself, himself?
Well trump is protected by secret service. I’m pretty sure “we” know everything about him.
