Stole? I thought the daughter left it there.
She wanted it “stolen”— to cry for help against this psychopath and his bird brain babysitter whore wife.
It wasn’t stolen. When Ashley Biden lived at a residence, she just left, and when she did, she abandoned a bunch of items of which the diary was one of them. The next people who stayed there found the diary and turned it over to James Keefe for money.
The fact that they pleaded guilty to the charges should surprise absolutely nobody, as this is the DOJ’s modus operandi.
The government has bottomless pockets, infinite time, and Leftists aplenty to pull the levers. They were probably threatening them with 20 years in jail, but convinced their lawyer that if they pled guilty to some lesser charge (trafficking stolen property across state lines, conveniently a federal offense) then they would get at the most five years, possibly some sugar thrown in to make it even less if they took the plea.
Very Freudian.
Not stolen. Abandoned. I’ve watched enough true crime to know that when someone abandons or discards stuff it becomes fair game.
