Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, was convicted on all three counts at his criminal gun trial in Delaware federal court, CNBC reports.
The 54-year-old was found guilty of making false statements in connection with the sale of a firearm, false statements in a firearms transaction, and possessing a firearm while being a drug user or addict. These charges stem from his purchase of a handgun while he was an active illegal drug user. Hunter Biden faces a maximum prison sentence of 10 years for two of the felony counts and five years for the third count. His sentencing date will be set later by Judge Maryellen Noreika.
Additionally, Hunter Biden is facing separate charges in Los Angeles federal court for failing to pay taxes on over $1.4 million in income, with that trial scheduled for September.
