Trump had 'no idea there were any records in any private office space': New Mar-a-Lago raid details emerge from unredacted FBI affidavit
New details of FBI affidavit were unsealed on Tuesday by Florida magistrate
It shows that Trump's writing was on returned classified documents
And his lawyers did not say they had been declassified when they returned them
That was a key defense of Trump when it emerged he kept classified documents
It also revealed that his lawyer said he had been advised there were no government files kept anywhere apart from a secure storage area
Yet several were found in a drawer in Trump's office on August 8

A magistrate in Florida unredacted more details on Tuesday of the FBI affidavit outlining its case to search Donald Trump Mar-a-Lago home, revealing that the former president's lawyer said he had been told there were no sensitive records stored in private offices there.
In fact, court filings show agents recovered three classified documents from a desk drawer in Trump's office on August 8.
And it said some documents returned in June bore Trump's handwritten notes - and that his lawyer's made no mention of any presidential effort to declassify them.
The details will only raise more questions about why Trump kept the documents and whether he made enough of an effort to return them when asked.
Critics of the former president jumped on the new details to claim that wrongdoing went all the way to the top.
It came after federal prosecutors asked for more details from the affidavit to be unredacted.
Magistrate Judge Aileen Cannon agreed, with an order signed on Tuesday.
