Her responses to the committee’s questions buttress Biden’s story that he was “surprised” about the discovery late last year of classified documents that led to a Justice Department special counsel investigation. Her lawyer has also been contacted by the office of special counsel Robert Hur, who is now overseeing the criminal investigation into Biden’s handling of classified documents found at an office in Washington and his home in Wilmington, Delaware. In addition to her interview with the committee, Chung spoke to federal prosecutors during an initial review. The new details – the first to surface publicly in months – are likely known to federal investigators in the months-long probe into classified materials found at two locations connected to Biden. The assistant, Kathy Chung, also said she did not notice any classified documents when she unpacked boxes at the Biden’s private office at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, DC, saying she didn’t sort through or closely examine the contents that included family photos, policy papers and challenge coins. President Joe Biden’s former executive assistant said she wasn’t aware that any classified documents were among the papers she packed for the then-vice president as he was leaving office, according to excerpts from her transcribed interview with the House Oversight Committee provided to CNN.
