Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, has been indicted on three felony gun charges related to allegations that he lied about his drug use while applying to purchase a firearm in 2018. If convicted, Biden could face up to 25 years in prison and fines totaling $750,000. The charges stem from claims that Biden falsely stated he was not a drug user on a federal firearm application, resulting in his illegal possession of the handgun for 11 days.
During the trial, key testimonies were provided by Hunter Biden’s ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, and ex-girlfriend, Zoe Kestan. Buhle testified about discovering a crack pipe in their home in 2015 and finding drugs in his car multiple times, which coincided with the period he applied for the gun. Kestan further detailed Biden’s frequent crack cocaine use and her role in helping him purchase drugs.
In a statement, President Joe Biden emphasized that he will not pardon his son if found guilty, underscoring his commitment to the rule of law despite the personal nature of the case. This trial has garnered significant public attention, with the potential for severe legal consequences for Hunter Biden.
