Ashley Biden diary thief arrested in Georgia on weed, other charges the day before jail surrender date
A Florida woman was arrested Monday in Georgia on motor vehicle, marijuana, and other state charges just one day before her scheduled voluntary surrender to begin a monthlong jail term for stealing and selling the diary of President Joe Biden's daughter Ashley Biden, prosecutors revealed in a New York federal court filing. On Wednesday morning, after reviewing that filing, a federal judge signed off on a request by prosecutors to have the woman, Aimee Harris of Palm Beach, taken into custody by U.S. marshals in light of her latest arrest. Within hours of that order, prosecutors told the judge that federal marshals in Georgia had transferred Harris to U.S. Bureau of Prisons custody "since the state facility where the defendant is being held is also utilized as a federal holding facility." Harris' arrest comes nearly two years after she pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Manhattan to conspiring to steal Ashley Biden's diary and sell it to the right-wing media group Project Verita
