As I've expressed in the past, the DOJ will go for a grand jury indictment. This is supported by the fact that they went the grand jury route for the subpoena.
It will take time for a grand jury to be convened and we're not even sure if the FBI has concluded their investigation and handed it off to the DOJ.
On top of that, Garland has indicated that any indictment most likely won't come until after the midterms.

Or maybe it's because the DOJ state in their filing that the image has been redacted due to sensitive information.

He's not claiming executive privilege. He's claiming restricted access which is allowed by the PRA for up to 5 to 12 years depending on the document.
That said, those documents are still in possession of NARA. He's not keeping them in boxes strewn across his house.

Former Presidents do not have executive privilege.
If you believe that Trump still has executive privilege, what happens if Biden says that he waives executive privilege for these documents? Whose executive privilege teaches precedent? The current President or the former President?

Is anybody connected with the government or government agency ever going to get arrested over there?
It all seems to be turning into a comedy or tragedy, I can't decide.

Some (if not all) the docs "seized" has executive privilege attached "at the time" they (the docs) were generated. 😎

FBI finally admitted they took "some" things illegally. They only violated Federal Law a little bit.

Not they did not. They said there were some documents that may be attorney-client privilege. Agents were given instructions on how to identify these documents quickly and then separate them from the rest of the documents for review by the filter team. Thereby minimizing the agents' contact with these documents, which is in keeping with previous court rulings on the matter.
Per the search warrant however, they were legally charged by a judge to collect any and all items stored with classified documents. Ergo, it was completely legal for them to take the documents.

Telling investigators they've collected all the classified documents, and signing a legal document attesting to such, knowing full well they haven't retrieved half of what's on-site is cooperating?
