The man who allegedly ‘setup’ Vice President Joe Biden’s daughter in a cocaine scandal could be facing several years behind bars.

Legal expert Stan Goldman told RadarOnline.com: “Look, this is very serious business even the government cannot conduct this kind of activity although federal agents can possess drugs without violating the law.

Goldman also told RadarOnline.com: “In addition he (the man trying to sell the tape) could face a possible ‘entrapment’ charge which all could result in many years in jail. Going after the Vice-President’s daughter isn’t a smart move and any judge would likely set an example of this person.”
The VP has been promoted as one of the major politicians fighting drugs in America and he helped to create the Drug Czar post.
The tape was shot this year and the woman alleged to be Ashley Biden clearly does not know she is being taped as she snorts white powder said to be cocaine.
