Hunter Biden was not implicated in the scheme, which defrauded the Oglala Sioux Indian tribe out of the proceeds of bond sales. But the scheme was committed under the auspices of a broader business venture in which Hunter Biden was involved, and the perpetrators invoked his name to bolster their legitimacy, according to testimony and a consultant’s slide presentation presented at trial.
his name was invoked without his knowledge and that he cut ties with the perpetrators when he learned of their misconduct.Devon Archer, whose conviction was reinstated by Wednesday’s ruling, had partnered with Hunter Biden in Rosemont Seneca, a Washington-based investment firm. Starting in 2014, the pair served together on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian natural gas company accused of corruption, at the same time that his father oversaw U.S. policy towards Ukraine.
A lawyer for Archer, Matthew Schwartz, decried the ruling by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. “As the experienced federal judge who presided over Mr. Archer’s month-long trial determined, he ‘lacked the requisite intent and is thus innocent of the crimes charged,’” Schwartz said. “Today’s ruling, which second-guesses that judge’s decision without having sat through the evidence and listened to the witnesses, is beyond disappointing.
Archer was convicted in June 2018 of securities fraud and conspiracy to commit securities fraud, but five months later, trial Judge Ronnie Abrams of the Southern District of New YorkIn its ruling, the Second Circuit wrote that the District Court “abused its discretion” in overturning the jury’s verdict.

Is this something we are supposed to care about

NosyOf Excuse me. Why do you have a photo of Hunter Biden, and not the actual individual convicted of fraud? This is misleading, at best.
as bad as Ivanka's biz partner Moshe Lax' case !!🤔🤔
Take the time to look into the business dealings of the Biden family. Your hate for Trump has blinded your deductive reasoning.
Ok
Why is Hunter Biden even mentioned in the story, much less the headline when the article states 'Hunter Biden was not implicated in the scheme'? tabloidjournalism
Hmmm, seems like these days the higher up in the American justice system you go, the more corrupt it gets...
Trump and Barr at work again.
wow your bias is showing again. mention biden who has nothing to do with it, but not the guilty party.

SO WHY YOU HAVE A PICTURE OF HUNTER BIDEN?
So desperate. Biden is now blamed for Hunter Biden’s once partner too? Seriously? Many Trump’s associates are in jail now.
How convenient.
