8 Feb 2024 Jahr - Biden won’t be charged in classified docs case; special counsel cites instances of ‘poor memory’ NBC News 2024, Feb 8

Beschreibung:

Special Counsel Robert Hur has decided not to prosecute President Joe Biden over his handling of classified documents, citing Biden’s age and poor memory as factors that would make it difficult to secure a conviction. The investigation revealed that Biden had retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency, posing serious national security risks. Despite this, the evidence did not conclusively prove Biden’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The report highlighted significant differences between Biden's case and the ongoing case against Donald Trump, noting that Biden had cooperated fully with investigators, while Trump had allegedly obstructed efforts to retrieve classified documents. The decision not to charge Biden brings closure to the investigation that began in November 2022 after classified documents were found at the Penn Biden Center and Biden's Delaware home.
