Legal experts told Fox News Digital it makes little difference whether the documents at the heart of former President Trump's federal indictment were declassified.

Former President Donald Trump is set to be arraigned Tuesday after he was indicted Friday on 37 charges related to his retention of sensitive documents.

Though much national defense information is classified, some is unclassified – but would still be covered by the Espionage Act. "And we need to find out what happened and make absolutely sure that never happens again, as I hope with that Mike Pence documents," Painter continued, noting that the"second issue" is the locations at which Biden’s documents were kept.

"We need to do the best we can or the investigators do to reconstruct who was in those buildings where the documents were," he added. Several troves of classified documents, some reportedly dating back to Biden's Senate days, were found in the president's possession within the last year, including documents found at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C., as well as in the garage of his Wilmington, Delaware, home. In January, Attorney General Merrick Garland named Hur as special counsel overseeing the Biden probe.
