George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley warned that President Biden's attorneys are 'likely witnesses in a criminal investigation” as GarageGate continues to develop.
lawyers are"likely witnesses in a criminal investigation" as the probe into Biden's handling of classified documents continues.from Biden’s time as vice president were found in the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C., as well as at the president’s Wilmington, Delaware, house in the garage by his Corvette, spiraling the White House into an ongoing scandal after five more classified documents were discovered at his Wilmington home over the weekend.
"That would not only destroy the ‘inadvertence’ defense but make his public comments potentially deceitful of both the public and investigators," Turley said."While gross mishandling does not require evil intent, unintentional violations are often addressed outside of the criminal justice system. The most serious violations have been prosecuted where material was intentionally removed.
Turley added that the"use of private counsel without clearances following the first discovery on Nov. 2 could itself be viewed as reckless and gross mishandling.
Republicans on Capitol Hill demanded the visitor logs this weekend following revelations that Biden's lawyers had discovered five more classified documents inside the home's garage. While it is common practice to keep comprehensive visitor logs at the White House, Biden's lawyers say no such records exist for his home in Wilmington.
