Hunter Biden Seeks Dismissal of Felony Gun Charges in Delaware

Hunter Biden is asking a judge to dismiss the three-count felony gun indictment against him, claiming that it violates his Second Amendment rights and that prosecutors are reneging on a previous pledge not to charge him with gun crimes. The indictment stems from a revolver Hunter Biden purchased in 2018 while addicted to crack cocaine. In addition to the gun case, he is also facing federal tax charges. Hunter Biden's lawyers argue that a now-defunct plea deal should block the gun charges, and they also question the legality of the special counsel's appointment. The viability of the gun possession charge is already in question due to a recent federal appeals court ruling.
