Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General Robert Hur speaks during a press briefing at the White House in Washington, July 27, 2017.Rod Rosenstein, a former deputy attorney general and Hur ally who spoke with Hur in advance of Tuesday's hearing, said he expected the special counsel's commentary during the hearing "will be tied pretty closely to the substance of his report."
Investigators ultimately found evidence that Biden knowingly retained classified documents -- including military records about Afghanistan and personal notebooks with entries about sensitive intelligence matters -- and relied on those records to pen his 2017 memoir, "Promise Me, Dad." Hur's report said investigators found documents marked classified from as far back as the 1970s, including a box labeled "International Travel 1973-1979" containing materials from Biden's trips to Asia and Europe that included "roughly a dozen marked classified documents that are currently classified at the Secret level."
