Hunter Biden found guilty on all counts
First son Hunter Biden was found guilty on all charges in his historic criminal case focused on his purchase of a firearm in 2018. Though the maximum sentence for his federal charges adds 25 years in prison, as a first-time offender, Biden is highly unlikely to receive that much time behind bars.

The jury deliberated for a total of three hours between Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning.
Hunter Biden was found guilty of making a false statement in the purchase of a gun, making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federally licensed gun dealer, and possession of a gun by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.
"I am more grateful today for the love and support I experienced this last week from Melissa, my family, my friends, and my community than I am disappointed by the outcome. Recovery is possible by the grace of God, and I am blessed to experience that gift one day at a time," Hunter Biden said in a statement following the verdict.
