LOS ANGELES (AP) — Jury selection is set to begin Thursday in Hunter Biden’s federal tax trial just months after the president’s son was convicted of gun charges in a separate case. The case in Los Angeles federal court accuses Hunter Biden of a four-year scheme to avoid paying at least $1.4 million in taxes while pulling in millions of dollars from foreign business entities. He is already facing potential prison time after a Delaware jury convicted him in June of lying on a 2018 federal form to purchase a gun that he possessed for 11 days. Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty to the charges related to his 2016 through 2019 taxes and his attorneys have indicated they will argue he didn’t act “willfully,” or with the intention to break the law, in part because of his well-documented struggles with alcohol and drug addiction. The indictment alleges that Hunter Biden lived lavishly while flouting the tax law, spending his cash on things like strippers and luxury hotels — “in short, everything but his taxes.” Hunter Biden’s attorneys had asked Scarsi to also limit prosecutors from highlighting details of his expenses that they say amount to a “character assassination,” including payments made to strippers or pornographic websites. The judge has said in court papers that he will maintain “strict control” over the presentation of potentially salacious evidence. Meanwhile, prosecutors could present more details of Hunter Biden’s overseas dealings... Sentencing in Hunter Biden’s Delaware conviction is set for Nov. 13. He could face up to 25 years in prison, but as a first-time offender, he is likely to get far less time or avoid prison entirely. Just another distraction. Pardon incoming…. Hunter Biden shocked the California courtroom on Thursday as he officially entered a guilty plea as a jury selection was underway for his federal tax evasion trial. Earlier it was reported that Hunter Biden was going to change his plea to guilty to avoid a trial. The indictment details a “four-year scheme” to avoid the $1.4+ million tax obligations he owed between 2016 and 2019 and to file false returns. Federal prosecutors fought back and Hunter Biden ended up entering a standard guilty plea. With the guilty plea — which was not part of a plea bargain and which came as a shock to prosecutors — Biden could face up to 17 years behind bars, he same penalty he would have faced if convicted at trial. Hunter also knows his father **or Kamala Harris if she is installed** will issue a pardon. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/09/just-prosecutors-fight-back-after-hunter-biden-shocks/ The Socialist International, the worldwide organization of social democratic, socialist, and labor parties, has publicly expressed its support for Kamala Harris’s candidacy in the upcoming U.S. presidential election on November 5th.
