David Weiss to seek grand jury indictment of Hunter Biden by end of month – By Ashley Oliver (Washington Examiner) / Sept 6, 2023
Special counsel David Weiss confirmed in a court filing on Wednesday that he plans to ask a grand jury to deliver an indictment against President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden by the end of September.
Weiss, who was appointed special counsel in the investigation of the younger Biden last month, wrote that he plans to “obtain the return” of an indictment before Sept. 29 in line with the Speedy Trial Act.
Weiss did not specify which charges he would bring against the president’s son but made references in the agreement to a felony gun charge and misdemeanor tax charges that had been a central part of a now-defunct plea deal between the parties.
The revelation of a forthcoming indictment comes after the plea deal collapsed at a hearing in July. The deal had involved Hunter Biden pleading guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges and entering into a pretrial diversion agreement to avoid the felony gun charge.
