A woman who stole a diary belonging to Joe Biden’s daughter and sold it to a conservative organisation has been sentenced to a month in prison.

Aimee Harris will also spend three months in home confinement after taking personal items belonging to Ashley Biden.

Harris, 41, pleaded guilty in 2022 to a charge of conspiracy to transport stolen property across state lines.

She was sentenced in federal court in New York on Tuesday.

The Palm Beach, Florida resident said she received $20,000 (£15,800) from Project Veritas, a group that conducts hidden-camera stings targeting news outlets, government officials and politicians.

The court ordered her to forfeit the money.

Judge Laura Taylor Swain called Harris’ actions “despicable and consequently very serious”.

Ashley Biden stored a diary and other items at a house that she had stayed at in Delray Beach, Florida, in 2020.
