Hunter Biden arrives at court accompanied by ‘sugar brother’ Kevin Morris
Smoke ’em if you got ’em, boys.
First son Hunter Biden appeared confident ahead of his plea hearing at a Delaware federal courthouse Wednesday, showing up alongside his “sugar brother,” attorney Kevin Morris.
Delaware US District Judge Maryellen Noreika is expected to accept the 53-year-old first son’s admission to two misdemeanor tax charges and a diversion program for a felony firearms charge later Wednesday, just weeks after sworn congressional testimony from IRS investigators on the case revealed a pattern of Justice Department interference in the case.
Morris, a Hollywood-based lawyer and Democratic donor, was spotted last week smoking a bong outside his Los Angeles home while Hunter, a recovering drug addict, paid a visit.
Hunter Biden, 53, failed to pay at least $100,000 on more than $1.5 million in earned income in 2017 and 2018.
He also lied about his crack cocaine use on a federal firearm purchase form in 2018.
He faces a maximum sentence of two years probation for the tax crimes and 10 years in a federal prison for lying on the gun purchase form.
Under the diversion agreement, Hunter must remain sober, submit to drug testing and avoid committing other crimes.
He also may not own a firearm again.
