Even your article says the documents were taken out of the boxes and spread across the floor and then had the "classified" sheet placed on them.
Bobby Chacon, a retired FBI agent, told Insider that the photo was indeed staged — but for a "legitimate purpose."
Admitted it was staged.
"It's just a trail to be as thorough as you can in documenting where every item came from within a search," Chacon told Insider. "And a search of this geographic magnitude … when you're searching a resort area that's this large, you want to make sure you're very thorough and you document where everything was."
So, to document where everything was, you take it all out of the boxes, spread it around the floor, place "classified" sheets on it and photo it.
Two federal law enforcement officials told The New York Times that the folders weren't discovered on the floor, but arranged like that by agents after they were removed from Trump's office.
So, they were not photoed where they were found.
Most agents will take a photo of the finding in its original form, and then spread out, so individual findings can be traced back to their original location, according to Chacon.
Most would do it in an honest way, while some will do it in a dishonest way, like in the MAL photoed.
These photos were released without being honest about the context because they wanted everyone to think that's how Trump had them when the FBI got there.
Remember, this is the dirty DOJ/FBI we are talking about.
These are the same ones that don't prosecute people protesting outside of SCOTUS houses, despite it being a federal crime. Drop charges on violent BLM rioters. They set up conservatives in a fake kidnapping plot and countless other things, not to mention their protecting Dems from scrutiny.
