EEOB & RSOB are secure locations. Senators and VPs have access to classified documents.
Unfortunately, Biden's situation is not unique. Countless elected officials have unknowingly left office with classified documents in their possession. The only one that hasn't turned over upon discovery or upon request is Trump. The only one that's tried to hide them from investigators is Trump.

How could they turn in what they didn't know what was there?
The legal principle of ignorantia juris non excusat (ignorance of the law excuses not) or ignorantia legis neminem excusat (ignorance of law excuses no one) is derived from Roman law. Essentially, it means that if someone breaks the law, he or she is still liable even if they had no knowledge of the law being broken.

When do we get his mug shot form the booking?..........
I think I hear crickets.
You can't arrest a sitting (or sleeping) President, but according to the courts, come 12:01pm on 1/20/2025, Joe Biden can be indicted for TREASON. (Hundreds killed due to his opening of our US-Mex border.)
As we discussed, in lieu of personally appearing on May 24, the custodian may comply
with the subpoena by providing any responsive documents to the FBI at the place of their
location.

It's a crime when there's intent. That's the whole thing we're discussing. As a Senator and VP, Biden was had clearance to address classified documents. There's no indication he had knowledge he was in possession of classified documents between 2017 and 2022.
If you have evidence that shows otherwise you should probably contact SC Hur and AG Garland.

Does the relevant statute say anything about negligence?

Trump did not comply with the subpoena. Hundreds of pages of documents bearing classified markings were found at Mar A Lago on August 8, 2022 when the DOJ executed a search warrant on the property. Over two months after he was required to turn those documents over to the FBI.
Biden was never subpoenaed to turn over documents. He notified the government he had documents in his possession as soon as they were discovered, he freely turned them over to the government, and then invited the FBI to search his office and home to locate anything he may have missed.

I've been telling you guys since this investigation started that the law requires intent to be shown. Don't act all shocked and indignant when Biden is cleared of criminal charges because intent could not be shown.
