President Joe Biden’s son has also been under investigation for his business dealings.
comes weeks after the collapse of a plea deal that would have averted a criminal trial and distracting headlines for President Joe Biden.
Republicans have unearthed no significant evidence so far of wrongdoing by the elder Biden, who as vice president spoke often to his son and stopped with his son’s associates. The White House maintains Joe Biden was not involved in his son’s business affairs. The three-count indictment he filed Thursday alleges Hunter Biden lied on a form required for every gun purchase when he bought a .38-caliber Colt Cobra Special at a Wilmington, Delaware, gun shop.
A felony gun charge against Hunter Biden, 53, had previously been part of the plea deal that also included guilty pleas to misdemeanor charges of failing to pay taxes on about $4 million of income in 2017 and 2018.
