Presidential son Hunter Biden has agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor federal tax charges in exchange for a recommended sentence of no prison time, effectively ending the sprawling five-year probe into a wide range of allegations trumpeted by Republicans.
Hunter Biden, 53, is set to plead guilty to failing to properly file his taxes for two years, court filings said. He also reached a deal that will result in him avoiding a felony charge of illegal gun possession.
The agreement was cut by Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump and kept on the case by President Joe Biden to avoid any perception of favoritism.
