WASHINGTON — Special counsel David Weiss, who successfully prosecuted first son Hunter Biden on tax fraud and gun charges, slammed President Biden’s criticism of his investigation as “gratuitous and wrong” in a report on the years-long investigation released Monday.
“Other presidents have pardoned family members, but in doing so, none have taken the occasion as an opportunity to malign the public servants at the Department of Justice based solely on false accusations,” Weiss wrote in his 27-page report.
“I prosecuted the two cases against Mr. Biden because he broke the law,” wrote Weiss, who also serves as Delaware US Attorney and who attached to his report hundreds of pages of court filings.
