, after a deal that included a diversion in connection with a firearms charge and a guilty plea to two misdemeanor tax charges collapsed in court over the summer.The conditions of his release remain similar to what was imposed in July. Of note, the judge said that since that hearing in July, Hunter has been"communicative with and responsive" to the probation office in California. He has also been drug tested a number of times and they have all come back negative.
One count alleges Hunter Biden provided a false written statement about his drug use on the form used for firearms purchases, and the second count is for allegedly giving a false statement to the dealer to keep for its records, as required by the federal government. The third count is for allegedly possessing a firearm while he was a known drug user.
For now at least, if the case goes to trial, it could take place in the midst of Joe Biden's 2024 reelection campaign.Though the case against Hunter Biden is in its early stages, questions have arisen about the constitutionality of the law cited in the indictment against him on the possession charge.
Willinger said there is"interesting interplay" between the illegal possession charge and the other two in the indictment related to the alleged false statements. The White House has declined to comment on the case involving the president's son, directing questions to the Justice Department. "The combination of those two cases might shed some light on how the court believes that this new test applies in this prohibited-persons category," Willinger said.
