President Biden’s lawyer have found additional classified documents at his Wilmington, Del., residence, according to his counsel Richard Sauber, who said “all but one” of the new documents were found in storage in Biden’s garage, and one document was in stored materials in “an adjacent room.”
Biden’s lawyers notified the Justice Department immediately, Sauber said. He added that they were cooperating with the National Archives and the Department of Justice “in a process to ensure that any Obama-Biden Administration records are appropriately in possession of the Archives.”
The discovery comes after recent news that some classified documents were found in November at the Penn Biden Center, a think tank office in Washington, D.C.
“Following the discovery of government documents at the Penn Biden Center in November 2022, and coordinating closely with the Department of Justice, the President’s lawyers have searched the President’s Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, residences — the other locations where files from his Vice-Presidential office might have been shipped in the course of the 2017 transition. The lawyers completed that review last night,” Sauber’s statement said.
During that review, the lawyers discovered among personal and political papers “a small number” of additional Obama-Biden Administration records with classified markings, he said.
