WILMINGTON, Delaware, June 11 (Reuters) - President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden was convicted by a jury on Tuesday of lying about his drug use to illegally buy a gun, making him the first child of a sitting U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.
A 12-member jury in Wilmington, Delaware - the Bidens' hometown - found the defendant guilty on all three counts against him.
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.

And he should go to jail if that’s the typical sentence for this offense. Joe Biden is honorable. He said he won’t pardon him.

Think what you will about Jones. But, fining somebody 1.5 billion dollars because his opinion supposedly caused some people some butt ache is about as over the top as it can get.

Actually, it was only 965 million. I think that originally it was higher.

I think you’re only a mile or two off of the topic of this thread.

I gotta quit multitasking. I'm watching the Mavs lose the championship to the Celtics right now. :(

And what are you going to say when he does?

I agree. Corn tortillas are more flavorful, but flour tortillas are better for fajitas.

If he goes, he goes.

I actually thought it was cut and dried that he would be found guilty.
The world knows he is/was a drug abuser.

Did you know the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary?
