The Department of Justice (DOJ) is seeking prison time for Aimee Harris, the woman who stole the diary of the president’s daughter, Ashley Biden, and sold it to conservative media site Project Veritas for tens of thousands of dollars before the 2020 presidential election.
According to the DOJ, Harris was temporarily staying at the Delray Beach, Fla., residence of Ashley Biden in September 2020 when she stole the diary “containing highly personal entries” as well as tax records, a cellphone and family photographs. Harris enlisted defandant Robert Kurlander to assist her in selling the collected material.
Project Veritas, based in New York, paid Harris and Kurlander $20,000 each for the diary and other materials the pair returned to Florida to obtain. Project Veritas is a controversial media outlet known for sting operations, sending its staffers undercover to record sources and capture what they say is the true story behind the headlines.
In November, the DOJ raided two locations tied to Project Veritas and the organization’s founder, James O’Keefe.
Project Veritas never published the diary, but a different website did. O’Keefe, who said he received the diary from tipsters who found it abandoned in a hotel room, said he did not publish it because he could not verify its authenticity.
In a Tuesday letter to Judge Laura Swain, federal prosecutors requested that the court impose a sentence of four months to 10 months of imprisonment for Harris, followed by three years of supervised release. Prosecutors had previously asked for six months of home confinement, followed by three years of supervised release.

So the authorities admit the diary is real?
He was white and not related to the President. What’s not to understand.
True Dat.
“Having a hard time figuring out why this is a federal issue...”
Silly, it’s a federal issue to protect a Democrat.
Also, since when is taking abandoned property “stealing”?
Value is probably less than $5. It’s not even a misdemeanor.
“Jill is out on the campaign trail, she needs to be confronted.”
Joe’s first wife died in a head-on collision that I speculate was a suicide (probably after discovering Joe’s perversion). She succeeded at killing herself and her daughter. But the two boys, Hunter and Beau, survived.
There are videos of Joe groping young girls’ breasts in public that would have resulted in criminal charges and lifelong sex offender status for most men.
You have a point, but it misses my point. Even if someone took the diary in an armed robbery, what makes this a Federal crime?
That's classified. And we don't have a need to know.
They found Laura Palmer's diary too.
I had that book! Along with the "Dale Cooper: My Life, My Tapes" one.
Wait, wasn’t the left saying the diaries supposedly fake? Sounds to me like it real in the pedophile showered with his daughter.
That works!
So if someone stole my diary, the JustUs Department deals with that sort of thing? That’s really good to know because nobody really seemed to care much when my house was burglarized several years ago. If they had snatched a diary though, it would have moved right to the top of the federal crimes list though. What? Oh, only if you are a Biden. Okay. Got it.
Like the bogus raps Trump is facing? Or the J6 political prisoners?
