The Justice Department released Monday former special counsel David Weiss’ report investigating Hunter Biden.
Attorney General Merrick Garland in August 2023 announced Weiss, then the U.S. attorney overseeing the investigation into Biden, had been appointed special counsel, giving him expanded powers to continue the probe.
In submitting his report to Garland, Weiss stated that he had prosecuted President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, in two cases, and he noted that Hunter Biden was convicted in both. In one, a tax evasion case, Hunter Biden pleaded guilty to all counts, and in the other, on felony charges related to his possession of a revolver, he was convicted on all counts by a jury.
Weiss also noted that in December, President Biden pardoned his son “for all criminal offenses he committed or may have committed over the last eleven years.”
This is a developing story and will be updated.
