Mickey, it is supposed to be SOP to provide the attorney with a copy of the warrant if he is there.

Assuming he does have a copy.

I agree with you there.

I know nothing of law but am I way off thinking they have to see what they find before they release the warrant because they will alter it. ?

Look at my post back a page, they did.

Random lawyer shows up at a search, with no letter of representation and no proof whatsoever that she represents the property owner ... except her assertion that she does so.
Must the LEOs allow this random lawyer onto the premises? Must they provide her with legal documentation, such as warrants?
AGAIN, I don't do criminal work. I do NOT know the answer to these questions. But I think that they ARE relevant questions.

It's very common for the DOJ to not release statements during an investigation. At least not right away.
Very common.
Oh, no, wait, that is Venezuela that I’m thinking of.

It's very common for the FBI/DOJ to also bring along CNN while they raid the home of a political dissident as well.

Why does it need to be unsealed if Trump has it?quote:
Unsealed by the court thus making it available to a public records request. Trump can release his own copy if he chooses.
What Trump has now (if anything) is the warrant WITHOUT the sealed portions, which apparently include the probable cause affidavit(s). He could release it, but it would not show very much of interest.
The upcoming "show cause" hearing is to determine whether the SEALED portion of the warrant (mostly the affidavits) will become UNSEALED and thus available to the public.

Yikes. In light of the history and past communications regarding these docs, this is a very very thin warrant. If this is the actual reason, it will even more point to a politicization of the DOJ.
Another obvious example of differential treatment along political lines.
Unequal treatment under the law.

FBI would have known. Like they would pull this stunt off without discussing the possibilities of what could go down before/during/after a raid.
I mean the plan this shite out to some degree...unless you of the opinion that they fly by the seat of their pants?

It was a really bad look during the Stone raid. They didn't want that kind of attention again.

Will be interesting if the DOJ argues to keep it sealed if he bucks them and unseals it.
That's how you shoot yourself in the back of the head. Twice.

I've heard reports of them not only not allowing Trump's legal representation to enter and observe the search, but also ordered that all the security cameras be turned off.

You're just assuming this.
Seeing as the FBI did eventually show it to her, I'd say her bonafides checked out.

DoJ and/or FBI had probably been dealing with an attorney in DC. They had probably never heard of this local Florida attorney, who went down to Mar-a-Lago when she heard what was happening.
Let's say that she is a probate lawyer and is establishing a new Trust for Barron. She is not even a criminal lawyer. But she was nearby and showed up when she heard about the "raid," to try and protect her client's interests. The FBI has no idea who she is, and she cannot PROVE that she is Trump's attorney.
Are they required to cooperate with her?

Yes, I have to.
But they made appointments at the convenience of Killary.
