Weiss is an American attorney who was appointed as the United States Attorney for the District of Delaware by former President Donald Trump in February 2018. He has been overseeing the federal investigation into Hunter Biden’s tax affairs since it was launched in 2018. Weiss previously served as a federal prosecutor in the same office he now leads, and he has also worked in private practice as a litigation partner at a law firm.

Hunter Biden’s legal team had reached out to the Justice Department in recent weeks, asking for an update on the case. However, since prosecutors narrowed down the potential charges last year, there have been no public updates.

The FBI and the IRS reportedly initiated an investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings in China and Ukraine, including allegations of money laundering and tax fraud. In December 2020, it was reported that prosecutors had been investigating Hunter Biden’s tax affairs since 2018 and were looking into his Chinese business dealings.

According to insiders, the prosecutors are still weighing the evidence and determining whether to file charges against Hunter Biden. Possible charges include two misdemeanor charges for failure to file taxes, one count of felony tax evasion related to the over-reporting of expenses, and a false statement charge regarding a gun purchase.

If Hunter Biden is found guilty, it would have serious implications for the Biden administration and damage the credibility of the president’s family. This investigation is ongoing, and it is essential that the DOJ ensures transparency and accountability in this case.

Hunter could face significant legal consequences, including fines and prison time. The potential charges include two misdemeanor charges for failure to file taxes, one count of felony tax evasion related to the over-reporting of expenses, and a false statement charge regarding a gun purchase. Each of these charges carries potential penalties, with the felony tax evasion charge being the most serious and potentially carrying the longest prison sentence.

Additionally, the investigation into Hunter Biden has gained significant media attention and has been a source of controversy for the Biden administration, as it could damage their credibility and create political complications for the president. As a result, the potential consequences of the investigation are not limited to legal penalties but could also have significant political implications.
