A senior Department of Justice official has suggested former first lady Jill Biden should face criminal charges for “elder abuse” for not revealing what she knew about her husband’s health problems.
Leo Terrell, a senior counselor to the assistant attorney general for civil rights, made the call soon after news broke that former President Joe Biden had been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer, which many suggested may have been hidden, like his cognitive decline.
Terrell responded to an X post that said Jill Biden “knew about President Biden’s health problems” but “still wanted him to run for President.”
“Elder abuse! Criminal charges??” Terrell wrote.
His tweet came as many suggested that news of Biden’s cancer had been hidden from the public, with medical experts saying it was “inconceivable” that it could have gone undetected despite potentially spreading for up to a decade.
“What I want to know is how did Dr. Jill Biden miss stage five metastatic cancer or is this yet another coverup???” first son Don Trump Jr. asked.
His father, President Trump, also later said of his predecessor’s diagnosis: “Somebody is not telling the facts.”
The post DOJ official suggests Jill Biden be charged for ‘elder abuse’ after claims she knew about Joe’s health issues appeared first on New York Post.
