Hunter Biden is getting a bit of FAFO for his past misdeeds. Not near what a person not protected by a Presidential pardon would get (remember it’s the only pardon hand signed by Biden) but something…
In addition to being disbarred in Washington D.C., he has now also been disbarred in Connecticut.
In Connecticut, the judge found that Hunter Biden violated several ethical rules for lawyers, including engaging in conduct “involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation.” Hunter Biden admitted in a court document to some but not all of the misconduct allegations. The judge also cited the disbarment in Washington, D.C.
One of the two people, Paul Dorsey, who filed the complaints about Hunter Biden, told the judge on Monday that he objected to the agreement because the former president’s son did not admit to committing crimes. However, Leanne Larson, an attorney with the Office of Chief Disciplinary Counsel, cited the pardon for the lack of admission.
So apparently a pardon keeps a person like Hunter Biden from admitting to crimes, but it shouldn’t matter as long as they are federal in nature. I think that a Presidential pardon only can be applied to federal crimes.
