Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, has pleaded guilty to nine federal tax charges, including felony tax evasion and filing fraudulent tax returns. The plea was accepted by District Judge Mark Scarsi in Los Angeles, with sentencing set for December 16. Notably, this comes after a lengthy hearing on the day his trial was set to begin. Hunter Biden's guilty plea was made without a pre-arranged deal with prosecutors, a rare move for a high-profile defendant. The charges include felony tax evasion, fraudulent tax returns, and failing to pay and file taxes.
