No Comments Hunter Biden’s Taxes and the Law
The U.S. legal system is premised on equal justice under the law, and that’s the lens through which to view the latest indictment against Hunter Biden. The President’s son faces legal peril from his own conduct, not because of his last name.Special Counsel David Weiss on Thursday indicted Hunter in California on nine charges for evading $1.4 million in federal taxes from 2016 through 2019. They include three felony and six misdemeanor charges related to tax evasion, failure to file and pay taxes, and filing false or fraudulent returns. Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
