US President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden has agreed to plead guilty on two federal tax charges and seek a separate agreement on a firearm charge in a deal with the Justice Department, Reuters news agency and US media have reported, citing a court document.In a statement provided to several US news outlets, the younger Biden’s lawyer confirmed on Tuesday that “Hunter will take responsibility for two instances of misdemeanor failure to file tax payments when due pursuant to a plea agreement.”The lawyer, Christopher Clark, added that a separate firearms charge, “will be subject to a pretrial diversion agreement and will not be the subject of the plea agreement”. A “pretrial diversion” is typically an agreement between defendants and prosecutors that allows rehabilitation instead of prison time.
