Who is Robert Hur, the special counsel overseeing the Biden document probe

The Justice Department’s probe into classified documents found at President Joe Biden’s home and former private office will be overseen by Robert Hur, a former US attorney in Maryland who has “long and distinguished career as a prosecutor,” Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Thursday.

Hur was nominated to be US attorney in Maryland by then-President Donald Trump in 2017 and he served in the role until his resignation in 2021.
