You are able to read all the journald files, aren't you? You are running cp -r so it looks like so.
IO errors can also cause a process to hang, and enter the dreaded "D" state.
It varies. Sometimes it hangs as a D-state process; sometimes it explicitly says 'segmentation fault' and other times it just says 'bus error (core dumped)'.
Also cp -r does die with exit status 1 and errors

Most of the files are copied though and everything works fine afterward.
Mind sharing the coredump so we could have a look? :)
