During a 13 hour search of President Biden’s Wilmington, Delaware home, FBI investigators uncovered six more classified documents. Reports state some of the documents went back as long ago as when he served in the Senate, nearly 15 years ago.

The search was authorized by the White House and Bob Bauer, Biden’s personal lawyer, said in a statement.

“DOJ took possession of materials it deemed within the scope of its inquiry, including six items consisting of documents with classification markings and surrounding materials, some of which were from the President’s service in the Senate and some of which were from his tenure as Vice President. DOJ also took for further review personally handwritten notes from the vice-presidential years.”

According to CNN, sources familiar with the matter said the search was conducted without a warrant or subpoena, just the offering of Biden’s legal team to allow the Department of Justice the opportunity to survey the home for additional documents.

The third discovery of additional documents comes after Biden’s personal attorneys found the first batch on November 2, 2022 at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, DC, and then more were found in Biden’s Delaware home. Some were recovered in a storage space in his garage.

Last week after the Delaware home was searched, Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel to investigate Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents.

“The extraordinary circumstances here require the appointment of a special counsel for this matter,” Garland said in announcing Robert Hur to lead the investigation.

Hur is conducting an inquiry into the “possible unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or other records discovered at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement and the Wilmington, Delaware, private residence of President Joseph R. Biden Jr,” Garland added.
