Hunter Biden indicted on firearms charges

Hunter Biden indicted on firearms charges, per CNBC.

This is on three criminal counts related to his possession of a firearm.

He is charged in two of the counts with lying about his illegal drug use in connection with his purchase of a Colt Cobra revolver. The third count charges him with possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful drug user.

The two most serious counts carry maximum sentences of 10 years in prison and $250,000 fines.

He has also ended up pleading not guilty in that hearing on the charges of failing to pay federal taxes on more than $1.5 million annually in 2017 and 2018. That tax bill has since been repaid.

“We believe the signed and filed diversion agreement [on the gun charge] remains valid and prevents any additional charges from being filed against Mr. Biden,” Biden’s lawyer Abbe Lowell said this month. The attorney stressed that Biden “has been abiding by the conditions of release under that agreement for the last several weeks, including regular visits by the probation office.”
