Convicted felon Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, pled guilty to nine additional federal charges in Los Angeles on Thursday related to tax crimes that he committed.
The stunning reversal from Hunter Biden, who initially had pled not guilty, came as jury selection for the trial was supposed to start today, but was upended after Hunter Biden’s legal team submitted an Alford plea in federal court.
An Alford plea would allow him to acknowledge the strength of the case against him, accept whatever penalties he is sentenced to, but give him the ability to maintain his innocence.
Hunter Biden reportedly decided he wanted to avoid taking the case to trial because “he refused to subject his family to another round of anguish and humiliation after a gut-wrenching gun trial in Delaware three months ago.”

The guilty plea was not part of any kind of deal that would have resulted in reduced punishment for Hunter Biden.
U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi told Hunter Biden that charges he pled guilty to carry a maximum sentence of up to 17 years in prison and a maximum fine of over $1 million. Sentencing in the case is scheduled for mid-December.
