According to court documents obtained by The Daily Mail, the judge in Hunter Biden’s Arkansas paternity case recused himself Tuesday, just hours after there was an attempt to make the former vice president’s son’s Ukraine dealings part of the case.
Judge Don McSpadden, of Independence County, didn’t explain why he was recusing himself.
He had presided over the case since Hunter’s baby mama, 28-year-old former stripper Lunden Roberts, filed suit for child support in May for their 16-month-old baby. Roberts demanded that Biden share his financial records from the past five years.
The recusal from McSpadden came two hours after ‘defrauded investor’ Joel Caplan, who wants to be made a party in the case, filed a witness statement from Viktor Shokin, an ex-Ukrainian prosecutor.
According to Shokin, he was fired in 2016 because he led an investigation into Burisma and refused to shut it down, despite getting heat from Hunter’s father, former Vice President Joe Biden.
Hunter’s business dealings with the Ukrainian energy company are currently in the spotlight, part of which has to do with his entanglement in President Trump‘s impeachment over a phone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on July 25.
In that call, Zelensky agreed to meet with Rudy Giuliani and US Attorney General William Barr over claims that Joe Biden pushed for Shokin’s dismissal because of his investigation into Burisma, in an alleged attempt to protect his son.

This resulted in a whistleblower complaint and led to Trump’s impeachment by the House in December.
No one can blame Roberts for wanting to know the truth about Hunter Biden’s finances considering she bore his child. Nor should we be surprised that the younger Biden has been as shady in his dealings with his baby mama as much as everything else we know about him.
And none of this is a good look for Joe Biden.
