Trump and family watched FBI search from N.Y. on closed-circuit TV: Lawyer

Former President Donald Trump’s lawyer says the president and his family were able to watch much of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago from New York because a closed-circuit television system was still on.

“I think the folks in New York — President Trump and his family — they probably had a better view than I did. Because they had the CCTV, they were able to watch,” Christina Bobb said Thursday on the “Real America’s Voice” program.

Ms. Bobb said there was some confusion about whether the cameras had to be turned off during Monday’s raid.

Ultimately, people on site determined they did not have to be turned off, according to the attorney.
