Dershowitz Urges Newsmax to Consider if Hunter Biden Judge Will Challenge Plea
Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz states that it is uncertain whether the judge overseeing the Hunter Biden case will question the plea deal involving misdemeanor tax charges and probation on a gun charge. Dershowitz notes that it is within the judge’s authority to reject the plea and ask for further clarification. However, he believes that the judge is unlikely to do so since no indication has been given thus far. Dershowitz emphasizes that the judge’s role is to ensure that justice has been served to the American people and not solely to the interests of the parties involved. He questions whether the investigation into the case has been thorough enough and raises concerns about the conflicting claims regarding the authority of the U.S. Attorney to conduct a broader inquiry. Dershowitz also comments on an incident involving a member of Hunter Biden’s legal team misrepresenting her identity to block the release of incriminating evidence. He states that the judge must accept the material filed by House Ways and Means Committee Chair Jason Smith and has the authority to consider any submissions in making a decision on the plea deal.
