Hunter Biden, the son of U.S. President Joe Biden, has assured that he is cooperating and that he feels “100% sure” that he will be acquitted in an investigation into tax issues he has opened against the federal prosecutor’s office. of the state of Delaware.
“I am fully cooperating and I am absolutely sure, 100% sure, that at the end of the investigation, I will be acquitted of any crime,” said the second of the children of the American ruler in an interview broadcast this Sunday in the CBS News channel.
Although he refrained from revealing further details, Hunter insisted he is sure of his acquittal.
“And all I can do is cooperate, and trust the process,” he added.
On Dec. 9, Hunter Biden, a Yale University graduate lawyer, revealed in a statement that a day earlier he had been informed that the Delaware federal prosecutor’s office was investigating his tax matters.
CNN then indicated that the investigation began in 2018 and has to do with Biden’s son’s business in China.
During this Sunday’s interview, aired two days before his biography was published, entitled “Beautiful Things,” Hunter spoke again about his struggle with drugs and alcohol, especially after her older brother, Beau, died of brain cancer in 2015.
“I spent more time on my hands and knees looking at the carpets, smoking anything that remotely resembled crack. I probably smoked more Parmesan cheese than anyone you know, I’m sure,” confessed Hunter, who admitted that once he was “13 days without sleep, and smoking crack and drinking vodka exclusively all this time.”
At that time, he recalled, his father intervened.
“He came to my apartment once,” Hunter recounted, noting that by then Joe Biden “was in the position of vice president” of Barack Obama (2009-2017).
“He got rid of his Secret Service, he managed to get them home,” Hunter said. “And I said, ‘What are you doing here?’ He said, ‘My love, what are you doing?’ I said, ‘Dad, I’m fine.’ He said, ‘You’re not well.’ “
Biden’s son, who was one of the favorite political targets of former President Donald Trump and his entourage in recent years, has indicated that he talks to his father every night.
“We talk to him at least every night,” he argued, noting that the current ruler not only communicates with him but with each of his granddaughters and his daughter every day.
“He’s always done that. I always mean. He’s talked to each of us. But I’ll tell you why: because he’s lost. Because he, like me, knows what it’s like not to be able to pick up the phone and talk to your child. “, he argued.
Hunter is the second child of President Biden’s first marriage, who lost his first wife and daughter of both in an accident in 1972 and then his eldest son in 2015.
