Prosecutor says Burisma tax evasion charges expired, but Hunter Biden still faces legal jeopardy

Prosecutor tells House Judiciary Committee that even the scuttled plea deal would not have spared first son more investigation or charges.

In an interview with Congress, Special Counsel David Weiss corroborated key parts of the IRS whistleblowers’ story, including that the statute of limitations had expired on charges that Hunter Biden evaded taxes a decade ago on some of his Burisma Holdings income in Ukraine.

But the prosecutor also strongly signaled the first son still faces serious legal jeopardy beyond the gun charges he already is fighting.

Weiss this week told House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, in a transcribed interview reviewed by Just the News, that his office is still ramping up staff and that even if Hunter Biden’s prison-sparing, now-scuttled plea deal had been consummated this summer, there was a likelihood of additional criminal charges and investigation.

“I can say that at no time was it coming to a close,” Weiss answered when asked about the impact of the plea deal rejected by the court this summer. “I think, as I stated in the one statement I made at the time the investigation was continuing. So it wasn’t ending there in any event.”

“When the judge would’ve accepted the agreement, it wasn’t over?” he was asked.

“Our efforts were not concluded; that’s correct,” he answered.
