Robert K. Hur, a former U.S. attorney in Maryland, was appointed special counsel to examine the handling of classified documents found at President Biden’s home and former office.
Now Hur, the former U.S. attorney in Maryland, will be leading his own highly sensitive investigation after his appointment Thursday as special counsel to examine the handling of classified documents found at President Biden’s home and former office., worked closely with former deputy U.S. attorney general Rod J. Rosenstein at the Justice Department and was previously a special assistant to now-FBI Director Christopher A. Wray.
“He understands the pressure you face in these jobs,” Rosenstein said, “and is very good at making effective and efficient decisions.”Hur, 49, spent nearly three years as Maryland’s top federal prosecutor and built a reputation as an empathetic leader who managed the office through the pandemic. He was named to the post by former Republican president Donald Trump but with the backing of the state’s two Democratic senators.“He’s a true professional,” said Sen.
In a 2019 news release, Hur said the man’s nine-year prison sentence “should serve as a warning that we will find and prosecute government employees and contractors who flagrantly violate their duty to protect classified materials.” Hur’s low-key, soft-spoken demeanor belies his high-powered credentials. After graduating from Harvard College and Stanford Law School, Hur worked as a law clerk to Judge Alex Kozinski of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit and Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist.
