Hunter Biden, son of the current President of the United States, Joe Biden, pleaded guilty to the crime of tax evasion in federal court in Los Angeles.

It is important to clarify that he is accused of nine charges in a tax criminal case that began in December 2023.

About Hunter Biden, there is an investigation by the Department of Justice into his taxes, and he is accused of “evading at least 1.4 million US dollars in tax payments.”

Although he had pleaded not guilty, “one of his lawyers announced in court on Thursday that Hunter Biden planned to change his plea of ​​innocence before the start of the trial.”

In a reversal of the decision, Joe Biden’s only surviving son “pleaded guilty to misdemeanor and felony charges without the benefits” in a deal with prosecutors hours after jury selection was set to begin.

Under the laws, the charges could carry 17 years in prison, though federal sentencing guidelines are presumed to call for a much shorter sentence, with the hearing scheduled for December 16.
