Hunter Biden's Attorney Withdraws as Prosecutors Move to Drop Gun Charges

Hunter Biden's attorney, Richard Jones, has filed paperwork to withdraw from representing him in his federal gun charge case. Biden had pleaded not guilty to charges including making false statements in the purchase of a firearm and possession of a firearm by an unlawful user of a controlled substance. The withdrawal of Jones as counsel is said to have no material adverse effect on Biden's interests, and he remains satisfied with his other attorneys' representation. These federal gun charges are the first brought against Biden by Special Counsel David Weiss since being granted special counsel status in August.
