Classified documents from the Obama-Biden administration were found in a second location linked to President Joe Biden, a lawyer for the president said on Jan. 12.

After the discovery of materials with classified markings at the Penn Biden Center in Washington—Biden worked out of the center from 2017 to 2019—lawyers for the president searched Biden’s residences in Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach, Richard Sauber, one of the lawyers, said in a statement released by the White House.

Those two homes in Delaware are “the other locations where files from his Vice Presidential office might have been shipped in the course of the 2017 transition,” or the transition of Biden from vice president to a private citizen, according to Sauber.

During the search, the lawyers discovered documents with classified markings in a storage space inside the garage at the Wilmington residence. Additionally, a document marked classified was found in an adjacent room.

No classified materials were found at the Rehoboth Beach home, according to Sauber.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) was immediately notified and the lawyers arranged for the department to take possession of the documents, Sauber said.

The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The White House said it is cooperating with a “review” by the Department of Justice and that it was “coordinating closely” with DOJ officials when it searched Biden’s residences.

Biden, reading from a piece of paper in Washington, told reporters that the materials were found in a “locked garage” that also contains a Corvette. “People know I take classified documents and classified material seriously,” Biden said.

Previous Discovery

The Biden administration had revealed on Jan. 9 that materials with classified markings were found at the Penn Biden Center on Nov. 2, 2022. Sauber claimed that the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was alerted that day and took possession of the documents the following morning and that Biden’s attorneys have since been working with the DOJ to make sure any records from the Obama-Biden administration “are appropriately in possession of the Archives.”
