Washington, October 22 (RHC)-- A U.S. federal judge has ordered Donald Trump’s former lawyer John Eastman to turn over 33 new documents to the House committee investigating the January 6th insurrection. 

U.S. District Judge David Carter says one of the requested e-mails shows that Trump knew the voter fraud numbers his team alleged in the Georgia election results were not true, yet signed off on their use in a voter fraud lawsuit anyway. 

Judge Carter said the documents are not protected by attorney-client privilege since they relate to a possible crime.  This comes after special master Judge Raymond Dearie expressed doubts earlier this week that materials seized by the FBI at Mar-a-Lago were privileged and could be withheld from a Justice Department investigation.
