In reply to the discussion: FBI Agents Are Searching Biden's Home [View all]getagrip_already
(17,802 posts)6. an aggressive special council would do that......
Previous searches were likely done by Biden's lawyers. An aagressive sc would want the fbi to take a broader look.
And if they find any evidence of "other" crimes, they will pursue those, no matter how trivial. Garland really didn't think this through. He must not remember ken starr.
Is he in his right mind?
Look, the fbi could search ANYONE's home and find evidence of a crime. I don't care who you are, you have evidence of something illegal, even if you are unaware of it, in your possession. It might just be a piece of art you bought decades ago but which now falls under some antiquities act.
This investigation is about to spread.

The previous search was of his Wilmington residence. This is of his vacation home.

consensual search, probably a good idea to put some finality on the collection of errant docs

+1, but you can't indict one or claim they could be part of a crime. Like WTF DOJ?!
