We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory. Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him-by then a former president well into his eighties-of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.
Spin away, but Hur is clearly stating that a jury would likely come to the same conclusion as he did. Biden's memory is not sufficient to convince a jury that he had a mental state of willfulness. Ok, so it isn't, but that begs the question as to to how he is capable of being the President of the US.
