Hunter Biden has been indicted on nine tax charges in California as a special counsel investigation into the business dealings of the president’s son intensifies against the backdrop of the looming 2024 election.
It seems that it was more than just failure to pay:
The new charges against Hunter Biden include filing a false return and tax evasion felonies, as well as misdemeanor failure to file and failure to pay.
That said, the maximum sentence for tax evasion is five years, but I don’t know how multiple counts work in this situation.
Yeah, but like, they are charging him with the scheme of not failing to pay. OP pointed out others doing the same stuff.
If he did crimes, good that charges were filed. Seems a bit hypocritical but then what would really be really hypocritical is holding people to a different standard while saying everyone should have the same standard.
Roger Stone failed to pay $2M in taxes: no indictment.
Rudy Giuliani CURRENTLY owes over $500K in back taxes and is also an “addict that lives an extravagant lifestyle”. Where’s his indictment?

You can get the max on each count. Usually that doesn’t happen, unless they didn’t get more counts or higher charges to stick.
