Hunter Biden had acquired several noteworthy achievements during his father’s years in the government — securing millions of contracts leveraging crooked Joe’s position, being the best mediator between the Biden criminal family and the Democrat-controlled White House government, and lastly, the first child of a seating president to be found guilty of a felony.
Apparently, ‘the smartest guy’ Biden knows is not so smart after all, when in June, the panel of jury over his illegal possession of firearm charges returned a verdict after hours of deliberations.
The jurors found him guilty of three felonies.
The prosecutors do not need to prove much, as Hunter, through his actions and text messages, had already admitted that he was a crackhead when he bought a firearm in Delaware in 2018.
The first son will be sentenced on November 13, a week after the presidential election, at the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building in Wilmington, Delaware.
Hunter, who has struggled with addiction, could serve 25 years in prison for the three charges, and each count had a maximum fine of $250,000 and 3 years of supervised release.
Joe Biden said, “I’m not going to do anything” and will “abide by the jury’s decision” after his son’s conviction.
He also vowed not to commute Hunter’s sentence.
Meanwhile, before the announcement from Judge Maryellen Noreika, the embattled first son and his lawyers also faced possible sanctions for their blunders on his tax evasion case in California.
Hunter’s legal team argued that Special Counsel David Weiss hadn’t brought the charges against the first son until he received the special role.
However, history would prove that Weiss had filed the lawsuit against Hunter while he was a US attorney in Delaware.
California federal Judge Mark Scarsi demands Biden’s group to respond, as he blasts that the defendant failed to contrast his charges and Trump’s classified docs case.
Biden’s attorneys wailed not to fine them for “accidentally mixing up words.”
They argued that they meant “indictments” and not ‘charges’ and further explained that they were only guilty at most of “inartfully” using terms.
“Defense counsel clearly did not intend to make false statements or mislead the court,” the lawyers wrote.
“The imposition of sanctions against a criminal defendant’s counsel this close to pre-trial and trial proceedings based on a single word would chill the vigorous defense of Mr. Biden and have the improper effect of dissuading defense counsel from raising appropriate issues,” their filing stated.
Can Joey pardon him once Joey is no longer in office? Hope not!
Joey will technically be “president” until Jan 21, when President Trump takes over, so yes, he can pardon him before he leaves. And he will!
