Presidential elections are to be held in the US at the end of this year. However, before completing his term, a new tension has emerged for President Joe Biden. Actually, Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden is in trouble. Hunter Biden has accepted federal tax charges to avoid criminal trial. Now Hunter is in danger of going to jail. Let's understand this whole matter. 

What is the whole matter?

In fact, Hunter Biden was sued by the US Justice Department in which he has been accused of not paying taxes worth 1.4 million US dollars. However, Joe Biden's son Hunter took a surprising step and accepted the charges just hours after jury selection began in a federal court in Los Angeles. 

Provision of punishment up to 17 years

As soon as the judge read out the nine charges related to the tax case, Hunter Biden accepted that yes, I am guilty. There is a provision of punishment up to 17 years under these charges. There is a provision of very less punishment in the federal sentencing guidelines. Hunter will be sentenced on December 16 in the tax case. Earlier in June, Hunter Biden was convicted in a gun-related case. He may soon be sentenced in this case as well.
