Who is the special counsel for the Biden case? Meet Robert Hur

A seasoned prosecutor who served as special counsel on the probe into President Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents has released his findings. Robert K Hur was appointed in 2017 by Donald Trump as the chief federal law enforcement officer in Maryland.

Hur’s investigation has run parallel to special counsel Jack Smith’s inquiry into former President Donald Trump, his alleged efforts to subvert the 2020 election and the transfer of highly classified government documents to his Florida estate at the end of his term.

The a key contrast between the two inquiries is that Biden alerted authorities about the classified records, while the majority of Trump’s were seized under subpoena and during an FBI search of his Mar-a-Lago estate.
