Marsha Blackburn: Hunter Gets ‘Sweetheart Deal for Lying on Background Check,’ Deja Taylor Gets 18-24 Months in Prison
Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) tweeted her disgust with the Biden Department of Justice Wednesday, noting that Hunter Biden is being allowed to walk for committing the same crime that landed Deja Taylor an 18-24-month prison sentence.
Blackburn tweeted, “Biden’s DOJ is giving Hunter a sweetheart deal for lying on a firearm background check. Meanwhile, the same DOJ is sending Deja Taylor to prison for 18-24 months for the exact same offense. What happened to equal justice under the law?”:

Gun Owners of America made a similar observation, tweeting, “Hunter Biden gets special privileges because his daddy is POTUS. Deja Taylor gets prison because Joe Biden’s administration throws the book at gun owners.”
On Wednesday, Breitbart News pointed to the AFP’s report on the details of Hunter’s plea deal with the DOJ, noting that he “admitted to illegally possessing a gun despite being a drug user.”
His crime allegedly involved lying on an ATF 4473 form in order to acquire a gun. Breitbart News previously noted that the punishment for lying on ATF form 4473 is a prison sentence of up to a decade and/or upwards of a quarter of million dollars in fines.

Hunter gets to walk free while Deja Taylor may serve up to two years in prison for the same crime.
Taylor is a 25-year-old mother who admitted to giving a misleading answer regarding drug use when filling out form 4473. That is the very same crime Hunter allegedly committed.
