Classified documents at Pence’s home, too, his lawyer saysNEW YORK (AP) — Documents with classified markings were discovered in former Vice President Mike Pence's Indiana residence last week, his lawyer says, the latest in a string of recoveries of confidential information from the homes of current and former top U.S. officials. Trump is currently under criminal investigation after roughly 300 documents with classified markings, including at the top-secret level, were discovered at Mar-a-Lago. Biden is also subject to a special counsel investigation after classified documents from his time as a senator and in the Obama administration were found at his properties. The presence of secret documents at all three men's homes further underscores the federal government’s unwieldy system for storing and protecting the millions of classified documents it produces every year. Republican Sen. John Cornyn of Texas noted that classified documents are only moved out of the committee’s offices in locked bags.
