The announcement comes after the White House and Biden himself confirmed the discovery of new classified documents from the time when he was vice president in one of his mansions in Delaware.
United States Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Thursday the appointment of a special prosecutor who will study all classified documents that have been found in homes and offices of President Joe Biden.
The special prosecutor will be robert hurwho will not be subject to the daily supervision of any Justice Department official, but who must comply with its “regulations, procedures and policies,” Garland said at a press conference.
Garland made the announcement after the White House and Biden himself confirmed the discovery of new classified documents from the time when he was vice president (2009-2017) in one of his mansions in Delaware (USA).
The Minister of Justice explained that on November 4, four days before the mid-term elections, the Office of the Inspector General of the National Archives contacted the Department of Justice and informed it that the White House had found classified documents in the Biden’s private office at the Penn Biden Center think tank, a place that “was not authorized for the storage of classified documents”.
In early January, it was Lausch himself who recommended further investigation by special counsel.
Biden assured this Thursday that he is convinced that the conflict generated by the classified papers will be resolved. “Everything will be cleared up, I’m sure,” he said.
Attorneys for the Presidency conducted a search, in collaboration with the Department of Justice, of Biden’s private residences in Wilmington and the beach of rehobothin Delaware, the White House admitted Thursday.
The lawyers discovered political and personal roles along with a series of classified documents. All but one of the papers were found in a storage space in the garage of Biden’s Wilmington residence, while one, a single page, was found in an adjacent room. Nothing was discovered at the beach house.
It is unknown what motivated these searches, the content of the documents and who decided to send them to those places.
