Hunter Biden to plead guilty in tax and gun case, likely avoiding jail time.
Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, is expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanour tax crimes and admit to illegally possessing a gun while a drug user, after a five-year investigation. The plea agreement is likely to keep him out of jail, and he is expected to agree to drug treatment and monitoring as part of the proposed deal. The final deal would need to be approved by the judge in the case, who will also determine his sentence. The gun charge stems from a 2018 possession of a firearm while a drug user.
