US President-elect, Donald Trump had hinted at mass pardons for defendants tied to the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot just hours after President Biden pardoned his son Hunter Sunday night.
Hunter Biden, 54, is now off the hook after he was scheduled to be sentenced on separate federal gun and tax evasion cases later this month.
The first son pleaded guilty in September to nine counts tied to evading from the government $1.4 million in taxes and was convicted of three federal gun charges in June for possessing a firearm while addicted to crack cocaine.
