Hunter Biden faces a new indictment alleging that he continued to break the law even after gaining sobriety.
Through the years, Hunter’s primary excuse for illegal activity has been his severe battle with addiction. He was kicked out of the Navy for regularly using crack cocaine.
However, this new filing details how Hunter failed to address tax obligations despite gaining sobriety and receiving financial support. Instead, he spent large sums on his lavish lifestyle. (Trending: New Movie Obamas Helped Make Raises Eyebrows: ‘Don’t Trust White People’)

“Notably, in 2020, well after he had regained his sobriety, and when he finally filed his outstanding 2016, 2017, and 2018 Forms 1040, the Defendant did not direct any payments toward his tax liabilities for each of those years,” the indictment reads.
“At the same time, the Defendant spent large sums to maintain his lifestyle from January through October 15, 2020. In that period, he received financial support from Personal Friend totaling approximately $1.2 million. The financial support included hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments for, among other things, housing, media relations, accountants, lawyers, and his Porsche,” the indictment adds.
“The Defendant engaged in a four-year scheme to not pay at least $1.4 million in self-assessed federal taxes he owed for tax years 2016 through 2019, from in or about January 2017 through in or about October 15, 2020, and to evade the assessment of taxes for tax year 2018 when he filed false returns in or about February 2020,” the indictment says.
The indictment outlines a scheme to evade paying over $1.4 million in federal taxes and includes charges of evasion, failure to file and pay taxes, and filing false tax returns.
The special prosecutor expanded the probe into California, and there are claims of political pressure to dismiss charges.
Hunter and his legal team have been proactive, offering to testify publicly and criticizing the handling of his case.
The situation is reportedly impacting President Biden.
“Between 2016 and October 15, 2020, the Defendant individually received more than $7 million in total gross income. This included an excess of $1.5 million in 2016, $2.3 million in 2017, $2.1 million in 2018, $1 million in 2019 and approximately $188,000 from January through October 15, 2020. In addition, from January through October 15, 2020, the Defendant received approximately $1.2 million in financial support to fund his extravagant lifestyle.”
