President Joe Biden's reelection bid could be facing a serious test – how might it be forced to react to the fact that his troubled son could face years in prison for lying on a federal form to purchase a firearm.
Hunter Biden had previously reached a deal that would have made the felony gun possession charge essentially go away if he met certain conditions over a 24-month period.
However, his plea deal to resolve two tax charges fell apart in court earlier this summer, and the future of the gun deal had been left in limbo.
It is a federal crime to lie on the ATF form that is used to conduct a background check at the time of purchase."
However, Hunter acknowledged in his memoir "Beautiful Things" that he was struggling with crack cocaine addiction at the time of the purchase. He purchased a handgun at a Delaware gun shop and owned it for about 11 days.
