Lunden Roberts earned $1,500 for 40 hours of work from Biden's company, Owasco PC, on Nov. 16, 2018, according to a recovered payroll file obtained solely by Washington Examiner. Two other recovered files show Owasco spent an additional $521.37 to provide health, dental, and vision insurance coverage for Roberts for the same month.
The payroll records were part of a trove of 168,000 deleted files the Washington Examiner recovered from a copy of Biden’s abandoned laptop. Konstantinos "Gus" Dimitrelos, a cyber forensics expert, authorized by the Washington Examiner to review the hard drive, recovered the deleted files from the unallocated area on the drive using a technique called data carving.

Roberts sued Biden in Arkansas for child support in 2019. She revealed in court filings that his company paid her from May 2018 through November 2018, but the figures were not publicly revealed. Roberts added in the filing that "she never received a tax payment for these payments."

In the recovered files, Biden expressed shock that his company was doling out payments to Roberts after his assistant, Katie Dodge, texted him the records. He then called Dodge to "take Lunden off payroll."
Biden fired Roberts from his company's payroll less than three months after she gave birth to his fourth child, Navy Joan Roberts, on Aug. 28, 2018.

"Regardless Katie [that] was if she was working a 40 hour week full time for me," Biden responded. "I haven't talked to Lunden in 7 months???????" "Well take whatever I pay Lunden and get my s*** straightened out Katie," Biden added. "We need to completely abandon this old process and come [up] with a new one. New accounts, new record keeping, new everything."
