Hunter Biden charged with evading $1.4m in taxes ‘to spend on cars, drugs and prostitutes’

The Telegraph  

The indictment added: “The defendant did not use any of these funds to pay his taxes in 2018.” However, Abbe Lowell, Mr Biden’s lawyer, said in a statement that his client had repaid his taxes in full, accusing David Weiss, the US Special Counsel, who is leading the probe into Mr Biden, of reneging on a previous agreement, US media reported. Lowell was quoted: “If Hunter’s last name was anything other than Biden, the charges in Delaware, and now California, would not have been brought.” The White House declined to comment. The charges were brought after the unravelling of an earlier proposed plea deal that had called for Mr Biden to plead guilty to two misdemeanour tax charges for failing to pay taxes in 2017 and 2018, an agreement which likely would have allowed him to avoid prison. Mr Trump, the leading contender to be the Republican Party’s nominee in next year’s presidential election, said the plea deal amounted to favourable treatment for the president’s son.
