The FBI has conducted two searches in recent weeks at the University of Delaware as part of an ongoing investigation into President Joe Biden’s retention and handling of classified documents, according to two senior law enforcement officials familiar with the probe.
It was not immediately clear what if anything was seized by the FBI.
The previously undisclosed searches at Biden’s alma mater were first reported by CNN on Wednesday.
As with the previous searches of Biden’s residences in Delaware and an office in Washington, D.C., he used after the Obama administration, the president’s lawyers arranged for the searches with the Justice Department and consented to all DOJ demands for the searches, so no warrants were issued, the sources said.
The Joseph R. Biden, Jr. School of Public Policy & Administration resides on the University of Delaware campus.
Biden had donated more than 1,850 boxes consisting of his senatorial papers to the university’s library, according to the its website, which says the records have not been formally open to public access since their arrival at the university in 2012.
