Hunter Biden Indicted on Nine Charges, Including Felonies
Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, is indicted on nine charges, including three felonies, related to tax evasion, failure to file taxes, and submitting fraudulent tax returns. The 56-page indictment, filed in a federal court in Los Angeles, alleges that Hunter Biden engaged in a four-year scheme to evade taxes totaling at least $1.4 million for the tax years 2016 through 2019.
The charges, brought by Special Counsel David Weiss and assigned to Judge Mark Scarsi, claim that Hunter Biden spent millions on an extravagant lifestyle instead of fulfilling his tax obligations. The indictment accuses him of willfully failing to pay taxes for the specified years, despite having access to funds to cover these liabilities.

Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Weiss as special counsel in August to oversee the investigation into Hunter Biden. The Justice Department stated that if convicted, Hunter Biden could face a maximum of 17 years in prison.
The case originated from Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings, particularly his involvement with Ukrainian energy company Burisma and a Chinese private equity fund. Despite a plea deal falling apart in July, the new tax case brings to light allegations of false business deductions and manipulation of the payroll and tax withholding process within Hunter Biden’s company.
The indictment of Hunter Biden on nine charges, including three felonies, represents a significant development in the ongoing investigation into his financial activities. As the legal proceedings unfold, it remains to be seen how this situation will impact the broader political landscape and the Biden administration.
