Jurors in the Hunter Biden gun trial began deliberations Monday afternoon, after days of testimony and hours of closing arguments from lawyers.
Hunter Biden arrives at federal court, June 6, 2024, in Wilmington, Del. The criminal trial of President Joe Biden’s son heads into the pivotal final stretch Monday, June 11, as the defense argues prosecutors have failed to prove their federal …WILMINGTON, Del. —
The panel of six men and six women must decide whether Hunter Biden is guilty on the three felony counts stemming from his 2018 purchase of a Colt revolver in Wilmington. Hunter Biden is charged with lying about his drug use on a gun-purchase form and then illegally possessing a firearm as a drug user. The three felony charges carry a maximum of 25 years in prison and a $750,000 fine.
Even if found guilty though, the president’s son would be a first offender and almost certainly not receive anything close to such a sentence.“If the evidence does not show that Hunter Biden is a crack addict and an unlawful user of a gun, then no one is a crack addict and an unlawful user,” prosecutor Derek Hines told the jury.“It is time to end this case,” said Mr. Lowell, who has attributed the charges to political persecution.
