Francey Hakes urges Newsmax: Weiss Must Resign from Hunter Investigation
Former federal prosecutor Francey Hakes has called for David Weiss, the U.S. attorney for Delaware, to step down from the Department of Justice’s investigation into Hunter Biden. Hakes cited Weiss’ controversial plea deal in a separate Hunter Biden case and his insistence on leading the new special counsel investigation as major red flags. Weiss has faced criticism for pushing a plea deal for President Biden’s son that would help him avoid jail time on tax evasion and gun charges. The judge in the case expressed concerns about the proposal. Hakes also criticized the Department of Justice for not launching the investigation into Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings earlier when his laptop was first obtained.
