This case has a long and drwan out history….
Hunter Biden HAD a plea deal that went South….
He was suppposted to go 0n trial….
He has paid back the penalty on the $1.4M tax evasion charges…
Hunter Biden pleaded guilty Thursday to all nine federal tax charges he faced, staving off his second criminal trial this year just before it was set to begin, according to The Associated Press.
In a stunning and last-minute twist, U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi accepted the plea change on the same day jury selection was scheduled to get underway in Los Angeles federal court. Biden admitted to withholding at least $1.4 million in taxes over four years in the throes of his addiction to cocaine, spending it instead on a lavish lifestyle. …
…
Biden previously agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor tax offenses last year in a deal with federal prosecutors that would have allowed him to avoid prosecution in the gun case, but that fell apart after a federal judge based in Delaware questioned unusual aspects of the deal.
Biden already faces up to 25 years behind bars in the gun case and is set to be sentenced on Nov. 13.
His tax case sentencing was scheduled for Dec. 16. Those charges carry up to 17 years in prison, though federal sentencing guidelines will likely suggest a shorter sentence….

People sometimes change their minds on things, eh?
