Hunter Biden, the president’s son, was found guilty on three felony counts of lying on a federal firearms application. The verdict is a personal blow to President Biden as he enters the final months of his re-election campaign.
WILMINGTON, Delaware: President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden was convicted by a jury on Tuesday (Jun 11) of lying about his drug use to buy a gun illegally, a verdict Democrats may seize upon to counter Donald Trump’s claim of a justice system weaponised against him. A 12-member jury in Wilmington, Delaware, federal court found the defendant guilty on all three counts against him, making Hunter Biden the first child of a sitting US president to be convicted of a crime. Hunter Biden, 54, lightly nodded his head after the verdict was read but otherwise showed little reaction. He then patted his lawyer Abbe Lowell on the back and hugged another member of his legal team. He then left the courthouse without making a statement. His father, Joe Biden, issued a statement saying he accepted the outcome of the case and would respect the judicial process as his son considers an appeal. The judge set no date for sentencing but added the timeline is usually 120 days. That would place it no later than a month before the Nov 5 US presidential election.
