Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley explained why Hunter Biden is likely to get jail time from his gun trial conviction and how his defense attorneys failed in the historic case.
Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley argued Hunter Biden soured his chances of evading prison time after he was found guilty in his federal gun trial, suggesting the case 'burst into flames' when he refused to plead guilty. Turley joined 'The Faulkner Focus,' Wednesday, to discuss why he believes the judge presiding over the case is now in a 'tough position' as Hunter faces a maximum of 25 years behind bars and possible fines as he awaits a sentencing date.
None of that's going to play well with the judge in determining whether to sentence Hunter to jail, and the guidelines under the federal sentencing guidelines suggest that such a sentence is warranted. Now they're discretionary. The judge doesn't have to follow them, but none of that helps when it comes to that decision by the judge. The first son was found guilty on all charges Tuesday in his historic criminal case focused on his purchase of a handgun in 2018.
