Hunter Biden attorney Christopher Clark is withdrawing from representing the president’s son in a Delaware probe indicates he could be a witness in coming challenges over the disintegration of the plea deal, which was concocted by Delaware’s prosecutor David Weiss.......after 5 years of investigating Hinter.

The Biden Justice Department moved to withdraw minutes after Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland elevated Delaware prosecutor David Weiss to serve as a “special counsel” (at Weiss’ request) in the matter......disregarding a rule stating a special counsel must be from outside govt.

It appears that the negotiation and drafting of Hunter’s plea agreement and the deal-breaking ‘diversion agreement’ will be contested.

“Mr. Clark is a percipient witness to those issues,” Clark wrote.

Excerpt——”The special counsel shall be selected from outside the United States government.” — Code of Federal Regulations, Title 28, Chapter VI, § 600.3(c).

This requirement is the law. The regulations were authorized by Congress under 5 U.S.C. 301, 509, 510, 515-519.The attorney general is the chief law enforcement officer of the United States. It is certainly expected that he would obey the law in its entirety.

attorney client privilege?

Yeah, that used to be a thing. It certainly went away with Trump. But breaking that veil wasn’t right for Trump and doesn’t make it right in Hunter’s case either.

Hunter Biden was all aglow, set to skate to freedom with
plea deal that included a hidden deal for his father’s criminal activities.

Hunter was set to plead guilty to nothing tax charges and to settle a gun charge wherein he lied, during a July 26 hearing in Delaware, but the deal unexpectedly fell apart during the court hearing before a very astute judge.

Prosecutors’ formal move to withdraw the plea deal indicated they plan to seek charges outside of Delaware, instead, addressing the charges in either Washington, D.C., or California.

The listed locations reinforce testimony from two brave IRS whistleblowers who complained about Delaware’s Weiss’s handling of the case, and suggested there may be stronger evidence in the two other jurisdictions mentioned.

He was happy to bill when the thing was a cake walk, now he’s afraid he might have to go real work.

Not a big surprise there.
Aglow from blow.

...Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland...

Lol........nice comeback.

Drug screens. Hunter knows.

There was no agreement. The judge proved that. Additionally, any “agreement” has to have a 3rd party (judge) also agreeing/approving the agreement. What a maroon. He just wants out. It hopefully gets messier.
