CNN —Special counsel David Weiss intends to seek an indictment against President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, relating to gun charges by the end of the month, the Justice Department said Wednesday.
However, after his plea deal to resolve two tax charges fell apart in court, the future of the gun deal has been in limbo.
Hunter Biden’s gun-related legal troubles relate to a firearm he purchased in October 2018.
In addition to the gun case, Weiss is still weighing whether to charge Hunter Biden with tax crimes.
Hunter Biden’s tax-related legal jeopardy emerged after he repeatedly missed IRS deadlines to pay his taxes on time.
