Ex-US Attorney Blows Whistle On Hunter’s Plea Deal: “DOJ is violating its own internal policies on this case, ignoring decades of policy and precedent, offensive to everyone not politically connected”

Former US Attorney Brett L. Tolman slammed the plea deal walking scandal Hunter Biden just got with the Department of Justice that will see the former crackhead avoid all jail time and not see any charges stemming from his foreign business dealings.

Tolman said: “DOJ is violating its own internal policies on this case. The Ashcroft Memo requires they charge the “highest provable offense” and seek consistent sentences with other cases brought by DOJ. This prosecution is an absolute laughable joke.

“Thousands have been sent to prison for long terms for the same charges. They are ignoring decades of policy and precedent to seek felonies not misdemeanors and seek sentences within the guideline range.

“The diversion agreement on the felony is offensive to everyone not politically connected who sought diversions and were literally laughed at by DOJ.

“Thousands of people have been prosecuted under Project Safe Neighborhoods by DOJ.

“They brag about getting nearly 5 years of prison time on average for their gun cases.

“If they followed policy, Hunter would be looking at a minimum of 5 years in federal prison.

“But he’s a Biden.

“Take a look at 18 USC 924(c) charges.

“Easy to prove given Hunter was distributed/dealing drugs with a firearm in his possession.

“Such charges were brought against thousands in inner cities across the country for last 20 years. “Mandatory minimum sentences for all. Except Hunter.

“Since Hunter “brandished” his firearm during the commission of a drug crime, he would be looking at a mand min of 7 years in fed prison.

“DOJ could also add on top and min possession of child pornography if any of the girls were underage, plus on top of that years for tax evasion.

“If DOJ treated Hunter Biden like the thousands of no-names who get prosecuted he would be looking at decades in federal prison.

Jonathan Turley said about Hunter Biden’s plea agreement:

“For many, this is gonna look like you ticketed the getaway driver after a bank robbery.”

When do all the black activists start screaming and rioting about "equity"?

The worst part will be the spin after Hunter gets his sweetheart plea deal.

Joe Biden: See? No one is above the law.
Media : Biden is a very honorable man. He puts the law before even his own son!

Will there be any mention of sentencing guidelines? Of course not.

This is enough of a conviction to satisfy the media, to build a firebreak for Biden, but it is incomplete justice.

When the issue starts being the issue, and stops being the revolution.

In other words, never.

A quick plea deal avoids issues like discovery and the possibility of someone with a pair demanding he rat out the big guy.

How about floating the rumor that Hunter agreed to spill the beans and see how long it takes the HillaryHag to Epstein him.

This is just another “fix is in” by the democrats.

That will take a day or less. And Biden’s DOJ will bring future prosecutions into line with the Biden rule while Biden commutes the sentences of those already imprisoned. Before this is over, a lot of them will probably get monetary settlements from DOJ as restitution for wrongful and discriminatory prosecution.
