Hunter Biden's business partner Devon Archer is sentenced to one year in prison for his role in defrauding Native American tribe - as emails reveal president's son had close ties to firm involved in the scheme but later distanced himself
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Hunter Biden's friend and business partner, Devon Archer, was sentenced to one year in prison Monday for his role in a scheme to defraud a Native American tribe

  • He was also ordered to forfeit $15,700,513 and pay $43,427,436 in restitution

  • Archer, 47, and two other Burnham Financial Group executives were convicted in 2018 of defrauding the Oglala Sioux Indian tribe out of bond sales proceeds

  • Emails obtained by DailyMail.com show Hunter had worked closely with Archer and from 2014 to 2016 - the period it was perpetrating the $60M fraud

  • The president's son, 52, was not implicated in the scheme but helped broker a wider, unrelated venture for Burnham with a Chinese firm called Bohai Harvest
  • well, not this scheme
  • A slide deck presentation prepared for the Chinese investors and sent to Hunter alludes to his financial ties to Burnham

  • At the time Hunter's lawyer said he knew nothing about the bonds scheme, claiming they used his name 'to lend their business venture more credibility'

#4 Indicted as a way to seal the documents up indefinitely? 20-to-1. As Whoopi Goldberg would say "Indicted indicted?" odds too small to calculate
