What to know about Hunter Biden's criminal trial

  • Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden's only surviving son, was found guilty on all three charges tied to the possession of a gun while using narcotics. The jury reached the verdict after only three hours of deliberation yesterday afternoon and this morning.
  • Two of the counts carry maximum prison sentences of 10 years, while the third has a maximum of five years. Each count also carries a maximum fine of $250,000. U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika said she will set the sentencing date at a later time.
  • The list of those who were called to testify last week includes Hallie Biden, the wife of Hunter Biden's late brother, Beau Biden; Gordon Cleveland, the man who sold Hunter Biden the gun at the heart of the case; and Hunter Biden's daughter Naomi Biden. Hunter Biden did not take the stand.

Republican strategist says verdict undercuts Trump's claim that Biden controls the DOJ

A Republican strategist said the Hunter Biden verdict undercuts some of Trump's talking points that President Biden controls the Department of Justice.

"It at a minimum slows the momentum and the clear-cut argument that the Trump campaign previously had about Biden's weaponization of the justice system," the strategist said. "It's less of a bumper-sticker than it was before."

Trump posted on Truth Social over the weekend, "I truly wish people would remember that all of these 'trials' are concocted and run by the Crooked Joe Biden White House, and DOJ, for the purpose of Election Interference and damaging Crooked's Political Opponent, ME, as much as possible. These are not legitimate trials, they are merely part of an illegal POLITICAL WITCH HUNT the likes of which our Country has never seen before! MAGA2024."

After Hunter Biden was found guilty of three charges tied to possession of a gun while using narcotics, NBC News' Hallie Jackson analyzes the political ramifications for President Joe Biden and how it may affect the 2024 election.

As the courtroom awaited the verdict, the alternate jurors came in and were seated by the defense. U.S. Secret Service agents and the U.S. Marshals were huddled in the center aisle and were seen conversing.

Hunter Biden sat down and drank water after entering the courtroom, and he looked down and appeared to be taking notes as he waited for the foreman to deliver the verdict.

Biden looked straight ahead at the jury and nodded slightly as the guilty verdict was read.

Afterward, he shook hands with some of the associates seated behind him, hugging one of them. He then smiled and hugged his lawyers Abbe Lowell and David Kolansky.

When Hunter got up, he kissed his wife, Melissa Cohen-Biden.

Summary of defense's case in the Hunter Biden gun trial


summer-concepcion-byline-jm.jpg

Summer Concepcion

Hunter Biden's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, has argued that prosecutors had fallen short of proving that his client had deliberately lied about his drug use in October 2018 when he submitted a federal form to pass a background check to purchase a gun.

During the trial, Lowell sought to poke holes in prosecutors' arguments that Biden was an active drug user around the time that he obtained the gun in question, suggesting that his client did not consider himself a drug user or addict at the time. He argued that the wording in some of the questions on the form left room for his client's denial of being a habitual drug user.

In his closing argument, Lowell pushed back against the prosecution's citations of Biden's book, which was published in 2021 and detailed his experience in being an addict, to bolster their argument that Biden knowingly lied about his drug use. Lowell told jurors that it was "unfair" of prosecutors to use quotes from the book about being an addict without context.

Verdict reached in Hunter Biden's trial

Reporting from Wilmington, Del.

A verdict has been reached in Hunter Biden's trial.

Here's what the prosecution has said about Hunter Biden


rebecca-shabad-byline-jm-1.jpg

Rebecca Shabadis in Washington, D.C.

Prosecutors have accused Hunter Biden of using or being addicted to crack and that he knew it when he bought the gun from the Wilmington, Delaware, gun shop in October 2018.

They also argued that the false statement on the ATF form, in which Hunter Biden didn't check the box asking whether he was addicted to or using controlled substances, was intended to or likely to deceive the gun sellers.

Show more

"The central issue in this case, and that is the evidence has established beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant was an unlawful user of and addicted to a controlled substance when he bought the gun on Oct. 12, 2018, during the period when he possessed it from Oct. 12 to Oct. 23, and for more than six months after," prosecutor Leo Wise said in his closing arguments yesterday.

He continued: "He knew he was using drugs. That's what the evidence shows. And he knew he was addicted to drugs, that's what the evidence shows."

Wise argued that maybe if Hunter Biden hadn't been to rehab or hadn't been using crack for a long period of time, then maybe he wouldn't have been aware that he was addicted to drugs. But, Wise said, evidence shows Biden was using drugs in Malibu at the end of September, two weeks before he bought the gun.

The prosecutors argued that the law doesn't require that he used the controlled substance or controlled substances at the precise time he possessed the firearm.

Prosecutors relied on testimony from Hunter Biden's ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, Beau Biden's widow, Hallie Biden, with whom he had a romantic relationship, another ex-girlfriend Zoe Kestan, as well as an FBI agent, among others.

Hunter Biden's wife is the only family member with him this morning

The language on the jury verdict form says:

  1. As to Count One, charging the defendant with making a false statement in connection with the acquisition of a firearm, we the jury find the defendant:
  2. As to Count Two, charging the defendant with making a false statement with respect to information required to be kept in records, we the jury find the defendant:
  3. As to Count Three, charging the defendant with possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance, we the jury find the defendant:

The foregoing constitutes the unanimous verdict of the jury.

Here's what the president has said about his son and the case

As we await the verdict in Hunter Biden's gun trial, President Joe Biden has repeatedly expressed support for his son while declining to comment on the case.

  • The president has said he will accept the verdict regardless of the outcome

Asked whether he will accept the jury's verdict in the case during an interview with ABC News last week, the president replied, "Yes."

"And have you ruled out a pardon for your son?" ABC News' David Muir asked. "Yes," Biden said.

  • Biden expressed support and confidence in his son at the beginning of the trial

On the first day of the trial, Biden said in a statement that he and first lady Jill Biden are "proud of the man" Hunter Biden is, noting his "resilience in the face of adversity and the strength he has brought to his recovery" from his past struggles with substance abuse.

The president also declined to comment on the case, but stressed that he has "boundless love" and confidence in his son.

"Our family has been through a lot together, and Jill and I are going to continue to be there for Hunter and our family with our love and support," the president said.

  • The president has maintained that his son did not commit wrongdoing in the case

"Your son, while there's no ties to you, could be charged by your Department of Justice. How will that impact your presidency?" MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle asked Biden last year.

The president said, "First of all, my son has done nothing wrong."

"I trust him. I have faith in him," he said. "It impacts my presidency by making me feel proud of him."

Jury resumes deliberations


Daisy Conant

Jurors entered the courtroom at 9:05 a.m. and began deliberating shortly after.

Jury deliberations will enter a second day at Hunter Biden's federal gun trial where they will decide if he was lying on a federal background check before purchasing a gun. It comes after grueling testimony with close members of his family in the court room. NBC's Ryan Nobles reports and Laura Jarrett provides analysis on "TODAY."

Here's what to expect at trial today


Matt Korade

The jury will continue deliberations today when the court comes back into session at 9 a.m.

Jurors were handed the case yesterday afternoon after prosecutors and the defense finished their closing arguments. The jury deliberated for about an hour before being sent home for the day.

Many of Biden's family members and friends have attended the trial to show their support, including first lady Jill Biden; James Biden and Valerie Biden Owens, President Joe Biden's brother and sister; Hunter's sister Ashley Biden; and his wife, Melissa Cohen-Biden.

Here's what you missed on Day 6 of Hunter Biden's criminal trial


Katherine Doyle

Jurors in Hunter Biden's gun trial began deliberating Monday after they heard new evidence from a witness about his drug use in October 2018, around the time he is alleged to have illegally purchased a firearm.

Prosecutors rested their case after they told jurors that Biden was a "habitual" user of drugs from 2015 to 2019, a period that overlaps with his gun possession, and that he knew he was an addict and even wrote extensively about it in his memoir.

Show more

His lead defense attorney, Abbe Lowell, said that while Biden may be an addict, prosecutors had not proven that he knowingly lied beyond reasonable doubt on the form he used to buy the gun.

"With this very high burden, it's time to end this case," Lowell said.

Read the full story here.

Jury deliberations began in Hunter Biden's federal criminal trial after prosecutors laid out what they called "overwhelming" evidence against the president's son as he faces gun charges. NBC News' Ryan Nobles has the latest.

The irony is that Hunter Biden's chance to successfully appeal hinges upon 2nd amendment gun rights issues.  And the Big Guy delivers a speech advocating gun control on the same day.  Will the Big Guy deny Hunter's rights to appeal just to protect the party line?  Maybe Chuck Schumer can make another whirlwind speech.

But first time offender, I doubt he will be sentenced to prison. And IMO prison would be bad for his recovery, as an addict is never really cured. The hardship in prison would be bad for his recovery. Some sort of community service is what I suspect.

While this is Hunter and not Joe, have to wonder how much the RNC will use the sentencing of Hunter for the upcoming election. The judge has said that sentencing 120 days after the verdict which would put this into mid-October. It's gonna be all over the news and it won't be good coverage for Joe IMO. To have this come up just a couple weeks before election day...

Judge said sentencing is usually set for 120 days after verdict

From CNN's Marshall Cohen and Holmes Lybrand in the courthouse

Before dismissing the parties, the judge told them sentencing is usually set for 120 days following a verdict, which would mean sentencing is in mid-October before Election Day.

Prosecutors declined to comment following the verdict.
