New evidence revealed this month with the appearance of special counsel Robert Hur, who has been investigating President Joe Biden's document case, may destroy the president's defense in the matter, according to law professor Jonathan Turley.

Hur surfaced to interview the president over the documents, which include some going back to his days as a U.S. senator. And while Justice Department policy prohibits the indictment of a sitting president, Hur may have evidence that the White House has offered false evidence about the discovery of documents, Turley wrote in an opinion piece for The Hill.

"The most glaring problem is that, after they were removed at the end of his term as vice president, the documents were repeatedly moved and divided up," Turley said, noting that some of the documents were found in the Penn Biden Center office Biden was using in Washington, D.C., with others in his garage and library.

"Many asked why they did not call the FBI, but the White House has at least maintained that, unlike Trump, they took immediate action to notify authorities," he wrote. "However, it now appears that this was not true." Oversight claims that the White House "omitted months of communications, planning, and coordinating among multiple White House officials, Chung, Penn Biden Center employees, and President Biden's attorneys to retrieve the boxes containing classified materials. The timeline also omitted multiple visits from at least five White House employees, including Dana Remus, Anthony Bernal, Ashley Williams, Annie Tomasini, and an unknown staffer.

Biden said he was "surprised" when the documents were found in November 2021 and said the archives were called "immediately." His counsel and associates also declared that no further classified documents were found, which turned out to be false, including the ones found at Biden's home and garage.
