Jonathan Turley, a distinguished law professor from Georgetown University, previously gave his professional sentiments regarding the legal predicaments surrounding Hunter Biden, following a jury verdict earlier this month. This verdict found the president’s son guilty on three charges related to his 2018 acquisition of a .38-caliber revolver. The deliberation took just over three hours before the jurors announced their decision.
Beyond this conviction, Turley stressed the necessity for Hunter’s legal counsellors to divert their attention back to a lingering tax case, an issue that’s far from resolved. The reasoning is simple: any courtroom proceedings from here on will be conducted with Hunter considered a convicted felon. This, undoubtedly, could allow for a more difficult legal battle ahead, a detail Turley shared during his conversation with Fox News host Harris Faulkner on ‘Faulkner Focus’.
In contrast, Turley indicated that there’s an emergence of a third front. He highlighted how Congress recently referred to what he considers a substantive claim for an investigation into potential perjury on the part of Hunter Biden. This follows his testimony before Congress, stirring up further complications for the First Son.
Speculations abound with Turley and others positing that Merrick Garland, US Attorney General, might choose to disregard this new referral. However, their shared concern centres around the House of Representatives seeming possession of irrefutable evidence supporting their perjury allegations against Hunter. Turley maintains it’s difficult to reconcile Hunter’s congressional testimony with the truth, making this a considerably graver offense, and an issue Garland will have to deal with.
Jonathan Turley continues to express his concerns about the pending tax case. He believes that this case, which has potential ties to the Biden family’s business conduct, may carry far more weighty charges. Repercussions from this could cast an even longer shadow over the troubled eldest Biden son, adding another layer to his ongoing legal woes.
In a turn of events, Hunter Biden decided to terminate his legal action against Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City. Based on a report by The New York Post last Friday, Abbe Lowell, Hunter’s attorney, filed the abolition of the case in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York the day before.
Lowell insists that the case against Giuliani and Robert Costello be discarded without prejudice- a move that would prevent any adverse impacts on both parties. Giuliani’s legal fees, costs, and expenses would fall solely to him, per Lowell’s request. This stipulation has, reportedly, received consensus from the attorneys of all involved parties.
The legal representative for Giuliani expressed his belief that the main reason behind the dismissal of the case is the credible challenges that Biden’s team foresees. He intuitively suggested that Biden’s team are aware of the issues with their allegations, hence the prompt for the case termination.
Mayor Giuliani’s spokesperson, Ted Goodman, welcomed this development. As reported by The Post, he claimed that Giuliani has proven himself truthful once again, while those mounting challenges against him and President Donald Trump have been shown to be duplicitous. Goodman stated that all baseless allegations brought against Giuliani and others by Hunter have been withdrawn and proven to be wholly unsubstantiated.
Goodman’s declaration injected a reminder into the public discourse that despite continuous attacks from partisan Democrats and the established Washington political class, Giuliani remains dedicated to the truth. He has consistently disproven allegations such as the Russian collusion and the Ukrainian quid-pro-quo hoaxes, and he also discredited claims regarding Hunter Biden’s confiscated laptop.
Adding salt to the wound of Biden’s detractors, Goodman revealed that Joe Biden’s FBI, after conducting multiple searches of Giuliani’s home and office, and following a long-term investigation, found no evidence whatsoever of any unlawful conduct. He claimed this as further vindication for Giuliani’s unwavering integrity, drawing attention to the unfounded allegations.
However, the closing chapter of this litigation is still pending. It will only come to a conclusive end when the U.S. District Judge, Jessica Clarke, gives her agreement to dismiss the case. The dismissal of the case is still under review, and yet to be confirmed as reported by The Post.
In conclusion, the unfolding saga of Hunter Biden’s legal troubles continues to garner public interest. With multifaceted legal proceedings surrounding Hunter Biden, including an intense congressional perjury investigation, an unresolved tax case, and a recently dismissed lawsuit against Mayor Giuliani, observers and legal experts will be following developments closely.
