Federal prosecutors in California filed a new criminal case against Hunter Biden on Thursday, indicting him on nine charges, including three felony counts, according to court documents.
The 56-page indictment—the second filed against President Joe Biden’s son this year—alleges that Biden evaded tax assessments, filed false or fraudulent tax forms, and failed to file and pay taxes.
The indictment claims Biden failed to pay at least $1.4 million in self-assessed taxes from 2016 through 2019, and that he evaded tax assessment in 2018 when he filed false returns.
At the same time, special counsel David Weiss said in a statement, Biden spent “millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle.”
Between 2016 and 2020, according to the indictment, the president’s son allegedly splurged on “drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing, and other items of a personal nature.”
