First Son Hunter Biden has been found guilty on all three counts related to his federal gun charges. Biden is the first child of a sitting president to be convicted of a crime.
From The New York Post:
The panel of six men and six women ruled President Biden’s 54-year-old son knowingly fibbed on a gun application form that he did not use controlled substances before walking out of a Wilmington shop with a Colt Cobra .38-caliber revolver on Oct. 12, 2018.
In fact, Hunter Biden was hooked on crack cocaine at the time, a fact he acknowledged in his own 2021 memoir — which prosecutors used as evidence against him.
Hunter was indicted Sept. 14 of last year on charges of making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm, making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federally licensed firearms dealer, and possession of a firearm by an unlawful user of or addict to a controlled substance.
The First Son faces up to 25 years in prison.
