Hunter Biden Faces Up to 25 Years in Prison in Latest Indictment

Last week, the court released a three-count indictment against Biden for firearm-related charges, for which he faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted. The indictment alleges that Biden lied on a firearm background check form about his use of illegal drugs.

The charges come following the collapse of a pretrial diversion agreement and plea deal that would have resolved the firearms charges, as well as misdemeanor tax charges.
