Hunter Biden has been charged with nine felony tax counts and his trial is set to start Sept. 5.
Los Angeles — In a preliminary hearing held Wednesday, prosecutors in Hunter Biden's federal tax case and his defense attorneys sparred over what evidence can be submitted as the case moves closer to its Sept. 5 start date. Mark Geragos, a new addition to Hunter Biden's legal counsel, accused prosecutors of trying to turn the case into a 'character assassination.' 'If they want to try this case…on the facts, the evidence of the law, we're very hopeful,' Geragos said.
Prosecutors say Hunter Biden had earned more than $7 million in gross income when he failed to pay taxes and said he funded an 'extravagant lifestyle' and evaded taxes by classifying some personal expenditures — such as luxury hotel stays, luxury vehicle rentals and escort services — as business deductions.
