The initial batch of documents -- 10 classified documents from Biden's time as vice president were found at his former private office at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement -- were found on November 2 but not revealed to the public until Monday.
"The President's personal attorneys have attempted to balance the importance of public transparency where appropriate with the established norms and limitations necessary to protect the investigation's integrity," Bob Bauer said in a statement. John Lausch Jr., the US attorney in Chicago who led a preliminary inquiry in the matter at Garland's request, did not ask for searches of additional locations after the initial discovery of classified documents at Biden's former office, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
