A jury in Delaware on Tuesday found Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, guilty on three felony gun charges after a weeklong trial that focused on his history of drug addiction, Ednews reports citing NBC.
Hunter Biden was charged in federal court in Wilmington with three felony counts tied to possession of a gun while using narcotics, and had pleaded not guilty. The jury started its deliberations on Monday afternoon, and deliberated for about three hours before returning the historic verdict.
Hunter Biden looked straight ahead at the jury as it delivered the verdict, and slightly nodded as it was read.
The trial was the first involving the offspring of a sitting president, and came as Joe Biden is facing a brutal re-election fight against Donald Trump in November. First lady Jill Biden was not in the courtroom as the verdict was read, and arrived at the courthouse minutes later. She immediately went into a holding room where Hunter Biden went after the verdict.
