Robert Hur, Special Counsel, will not prosecute Joe Biden despite stating that Biden retained and disclosed classified materials after the end of his vice presidency. According to Hur, the evidence does not meet the “beyond a reasonable doubt” standard and that Biden would come across as a sympathetic elder man with poor memory. Joe Biden’s memory was apparently limited during the interviews related to the classified documents investigation.<\/p>\n

“Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen,” the report said, according to a 388-page long US Department of Justice release from Thursday.<\/p>\n

Hur added that the evidence “does not establish Mr. Biden’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt” and cites factors relating to Biden’s memory in particular.<\/p>\n

Biden’s memory, Hur’s report claimed, “was significantly limited” during his 2023 interviews with the special counsel.<\/p>\n

“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” the report from Hur stated. “Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”<\/p>\n

In one point of the report, Hur documents a conversation that Biden had with a ghost writer, Mark Zwonitzer, to work on a memoir about his time in office. Reporting this as part of the case, Hur wrote that “Biden’s memory also appeared to have significant limitations — both at the time he spoke to Zwonitzer in 2017, as evidenced by their recorded conversations, and today, as evidenced by his recorded interview with our office.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
