Hunter Biden Changes Plea Ahead of Tax Trial
News summary

Hunter Biden plans to change his plea to six federal tax charges by entering an Alford plea, which acknowledges sufficient evidence for conviction without admitting guilt. This decision comes just before jury selection for his trial, with his attorney stating the plea conditions are still undisclosed. Biden faces allegations of a four-year scheme to evade paying over $1.4 million in taxes and falsely filing returns, with prosecutors expected to present over two dozen witnesses. He has previously attributed his financial irresponsibility to struggles with addiction. Additionally, Biden's legal team is pursuing the reversal of a separate gun conviction, citing a recent ruling on the rights of sober individuals with past substance use. His sentencing in the gun case is set for November 13, while the tax trial is scheduled to commence shortly after.
