https://www.politico.com/news/2024/02/07/biden-classified-document-case-ends-without-charges-00140271An independent investigation into classified documents found at the home of President Joe Biden and a think tank office he used has concluded, a letter sent to Congress on Wednesday said, without indication of any criminal charges being brought.
The letter from Attorney General Merrick Garland to congressional leaders did not include a copy of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report, which is being reviewed by a legal privilege team. It provided few details about the investigation and made no mention of charges.
The attorney general said Hur filed his final report Monday and the bulk of it is expected to be made public soon.
“I am committed to making as much of the Special Counsel’s report public as possible, consistent with legal requirements and Department policy,” Garland wrote in the one-page letter.
Garland said the release of the report was waiting on a legal privilege review by Biden’s White House Counsel’s Office.
White House spokesperson Ian Sams said the review should be complete later this week.
