Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, pleaded guilty to nine tax evasion charges, admitting he failed to pay $1.4 million in taxes over the past decade.

The 54-year-old's plea came in a Washington court without the deal he sought.

US District Judge Mark Scarsi set his sentencing for December 16.

Biden could face up to 17 years in prison and over one million dollars in fines.

The case exposes a decade of lavish spending on sex workers, a drug habit, and luxury living.

Biden's drug addiction and the death of his older brother Beau have been cited as factors in his financial misconduct.

President Biden maintains he will not pardon his son.
