Crack every 20 minutes, $1m hooker binge & dodgy laptop… inside Hunter Biden’s sordid downfall that led to Joe’s pardon

Hunting Biden has been in the news for a long time for all the wrong reasons.

The 54-year-old’s name has been associated with narcotics, prostitution, and criminal indictments due to its contentious history.

Following his father’s contentious pardon for tax and firearm offenses, Hunter, the youngest son of outgoing President Joe Biden, has now been saved from going to prison.

The younger Biden, who pleaded guilty in a California tax evasion case and was found guilty of weapons offenses in Delaware in June, was scheduled to be sentenced this month.

However, any more offenses that Hunter committed between 2014 and this year are covered by the complete and unconditional pardon that was signed last night.

The pardon is the most recent in a string of disputes that have dogged Hunter’s tumultuous existence.

He began drinking while he was a youngster and took cocaine excessively while attending college, going through periods of treatment.

Hunter joined the US Navy Reserve in 2013, but after testing positive for cocaine use on his first day, he was released.

It is said that he drank heavily after his older brother Beau passed away from brain cancer in 2015, sometimes just going out to get vodka.

Kathleen Buhle, his wife of 24 years, revealed his terrible drug and alcohol addictions that affected “the whole family” in 2017, following a contentious divorce.

She also revealed his several affairs, including one with Hallie Biden, his sister-in-law, following the passing of his brother Beau.

Following his divorce, Hunter later started dating Zoe Kestan in late 2017.

He was abusing crack cocaine “every 20 minutes or so” when they initially met, she told a jury earlier this year.

According to Kestan, Hunter would “want to smoke as soon as he woke up”

Hunter got into trouble with the law after lying about using drugs to purchase a.38 caliber handgun two months after a 2018 rehab stay.

From there, his life took a turn for the worst, and indictments and legal proceedings exposed vile aspects of his existence.

Additionally, during his father’s 2020 election campaign, the notorious laptop Hunter left at a Delaware repair shop turned into a political dynamite.

The laptop had sexually explicit photos and revealed his shady drug-fueled parties and foreign business transactions.

In 2020, the FBI opened an investigation against Hunterback following the publication of incriminating files from the laptop by the New York Post.

Numerous emails, texts, pictures, and documents between Hunter, his family, and his contacts that detailed his business transactions in China and Ukraine were on its hard drive.

Along with many other allegedly sexually filthy pictures, it also allegedly includes a 12-minute movie that purports to show Hunter using crack while having sex with a lady.

Hunter disclosed in late 2020, one month after his father’s election to the White House, that the Justice Department was looking into him in connection with a tax inquiry that had begun in 2018.

Hunter was scheduled to be sentenced on December 16 after entering a guilty plea to federal tax evasion charges in September.

In addition, his sentencing for his June conviction on federal firearms crimes was scheduled for next week.

The prosecution pressed the claim that Hunter intentionally misrepresented his drug use on a firearms application six years prior.

According to federal authorities, Hunter bought a.38 Colt Cobra handgun on October 12, 2018, when he entered Wilmington’s StarQuest Shooters & Survival Supply store.

According to the government, the president’s son responded “No” when asked if he was using or addicted to narcotics or a restricted substance on a form from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

During closing arguments, prosecutor Leo Wise stated, “The defendant knew he used crack and was addicted to crack at the relevant time period.”

Regarding the firearm Hunter owned for 11 days, Wise continued, “There is no evidence that anyone else possessed the gun from October 12 to October 23 other than the defendant.”

Those closest to Hunter testified incriminatingly to the jury about his years of drug abuse.

In the trial, prosecutors even played audio clips from Hunter’s 2021 book, Beautiful Things, which detailed the defendant’s drug use and sobriety in his own words.

Hunter could have been imprisoned for 25 years after a 12-panel jury found him guilty on all charges in June, but he was pardoned yesterday night.

Hunter entered a guilty plea to the accusations of not paying over $1.4 million in taxes between 2016 and 2019 during a separate trial held in Los Angeles in September.

The indictment described how Hunter made $7 million from his international business transactions, and he was charged with three felony tax offenses and six misdemeanor offenses.

Almost $5 million was spent by the businessman on “everything but his taxes” during that time.

Instead, Hunter lavished money on escorts, expensive hotels, fancy cars, drugs, and clothes, all of which he fraudulently claimed were related to his business.

In less than four years, he spent about $1 million on hookers and “adult entertainment”—during which he admitted to having an alcohol and crack cocaine addiction.

Buhle, his irate ex-wife, called his spending “irresponsible” in an email in 2017.

Around the same time he reduced her and their three daughters’ monthly payments from $17,000 to $1,700, she revealed how he spent $122,000 in two months.

Buhle stated: “Simply looking at your spending is enough for any judge to be disgusted.”

The $7,000 he spent each month to rent a $5 million waterfront house to live in with Beau’s widow Hallie during their affair in early 2018 was one of his most lavish expenditures.

Then, in May of that year, he spent $8,000 on a lengthy callout to a Russian sex worker who was 24 years old.

In addition, Hunter spent $34,400 for 42 nights at the Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles, where he cooked crack on the stove in the little kitchen.

Then, for 14 nights, he spent $140,000 per night at the Palms Casino resort in Las Vegas.

He went on a massive bender, fueled by crack cocaine and accompanied by prostitutes, based on pictures and texts discovered on his laptop.

Due to his years of tax evasion, he was subject to a potential sentence of 17 years in prison and a fine of up to $1 million.

However, his father, Joe Biden, has forgiven his indictments and ludicrous actions.

With less than two months remaining in office, the outgoing president used his authority to pardon his son last night.

The bombshell decision came despite the president, 82, repeatedly insisting that he would not pardon his son or commute his sentence.

Biden claimed his son was “unfairly prosecuted” as he announced his drastic decision.

He said last night: “Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter.

“From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted.”

He added: “For my entire career I have followed a simple principle: just tell the American people the truth. They ll be fair-minded.

“Here s the truth: I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe rawpoliticshas infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further.

“I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision.”

The pardon spares the younger Biden from a possibleprisonsentence for federal felony gun and tax convictions.

Incoming President Trump, 78, blasted the decision.

Referencing those jailed for the riot at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, he wrote: Does the pardon given by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 hostages, who have now been imprisoned for years?

Such an abuse and miscarriage of justice.

“That system of justice must be fixed and due process must be restored for all Americans, which is exactly what President Trump will do as he returns to the White House with an overwhelming mandate from the American people.”
