Tara Reade, who has accused Joe Biden of sexual assault has revealed a new bit of information. At the time she claims to have been sexually assaulted by Joe Biden, she says she filed a report with Senate personnel office laying out the supposed misconduct. Mysteriously, the Senate Personnel Office say they can’t find her complaint. I don’t know about you but I’m in shock. (Removes tongue from cheek)
There could be a copy among Biden’s Senate papers that he contributed to the University of Delaware. Those papers were to be released in December of 2019 but one day before Biden announced he was running for president the university announced that the papers would not be released after all. At least not until 2 years after Biden retires from public life.
By then I’m sure the university can have his records sanitized. At the time of the alleged assault, she allegedly told her brother and a friend about the assault. Two interns at the time also confirm that Reade’s supervisory role over them was ended at the same time as the alleged assault.
To date, Reade has not been able to obtain a copy of the personnel report. She claims her inability stems from the fact that Biden’s Senate papers were donated to the University of Delaware in 2011. Those papers now present perhaps the best and clearest record of what really transpired, given the differing recollections between Reade and members of Biden’s camp.
The only problem is that the documents are unlikely to become public any time soon. The documents, which fill 1,875 boxes and include 415 gigabytes of electronic records, were to be made public on Dec. 31, 2019, according to an agreement the former vice president entered into with the University of Delaware upon donating his papers.
Those parameters, though, were changed on April 24, 2019—the day before Biden declared his 2020 campaign—when the university announced the trove of documents would now be made public on Dec. 31 or “two years” after the former vice president “retires from public life.” At the time, the university provided no definition for what it considered “public life,” leaving open the final date for release.
Among the documents are “committee reports, drafts of legislation,” and official correspondance. It is uncertain if documents pertaining to personnel issues or employment complaints would be among the papers. The secretary of the Senate did not respond to a request for clarification about private versus public employment documents by press time.
