Biden thought the documents belonged to him.
Yeah. I read it. He didn't think prosecutors could prove intent.
No. It did not.
Intent is required. No intent; no violation..
No he did not.

I listened to it live as it happened.
Biden thought the documents belonged to him.
Biden thought his diaries belonged to him. Still, it’s amazing how you all rejected that when trump said it.
Again, that’s a cop out, Biden has been in government for over 50 years…he knows the rules regarding classified documents, and, a senator nor vice president have declassification powers unless they are the original classifying authority, and that didn’t come about until Obama made it into an executive order.
Yeah. I read it. He didn't think prosecutors could prove intent.
That’s not the reason he didn’t go for charges, he said it many times, it was because of bidens mental state and how it would appear to a jury.
No. It did not.
Intent is required. No intent; no violation..
Yes…it did. Willful intent was established in the report.
No he did not.

Yes…again, it did.
He didn’t say there was no intent, he actually said they found intent, but he didn’t feel he could prove that to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt
His decision not to charge was based on what he felt was the likely outcome as perceived by a jury based on issues with bidens memory
I’ll let Hur explain it in his own words:
I can’t find the clip but I’ll keep looking for it, but I had heard that in one of the segments, Hur indicated that it’s possible that through a different prosecutor, Biden could have been charged.
I don’t remember that part, but if I can find it , I’ll post it.
Anyway, as Hur says, the entire report was an explanation to why he decided not to charge Biden, and those reasons are all based in the same thing, he put himself in the position of the jury and the defense and what the rebuttals would be and that those rebuttals would center around Bidens recollection abilities, and how Biden would appear as a well meaning, sympathetic old man with a poor memory, and the he couldn’t prove the willful intent, beyond a reasonable doubt, even though he did conclude willful intent was there, he didn’t think he could prove it beyond a reasonable doubt to a jury, based on how that jury might perceive Biden.
