After facing charges of a gun felony and two tax misdemeanours, Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, has agreed to enter a plea agreement that would help him avoid going to jail. The case, which began in 2018, has been closely watched by political pundits and opponents of President Biden alike.
Hunter Biden has been the subject of intense scrutiny in recent years due to his personal life and business dealings, and this latest development is sure to generate considerable public interest and debate. While the plea agreement is still being finalised, many are already speculating about what the future may hold for Hunter Biden and his family amidst this controversial legal battle.
On Tuesday, charges against Hunter Biden included failing to pay federal taxes in 2017 and 2018 as well as illegally possessing a handgun in 2018.
According to U.S. Attorney David Weiss' letter, "the first Information charges the defendant with tax offences, specifically, two counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax." "The second Information charges the defendant with a firearm offence, specifically one count of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance."
According to Axios, Hunter has entered a probation agreement for the gun charge and agreed to plead guilty to the tax misdemeanours.
The House Oversight Committee is still looking into Hunter's foreign business dealings.
