It’s crunch time for Hunter Biden as the jury deliberates in his federal gun case, accused of falsifying documents related to firearms purchases.
Hunter’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, gave a passionate closing argument to the jury, urging them to make the right call.
The judge denied defense team requests for more favorable language in jury instructions before sending them off to reach a verdict.
The trial unfolded with testimonies from ten witnesses, including Kathleen Buhle, Hunter’s former wife, and Hallie Biden, the widow of his brother, who spoke about his history of drug use.
Despite not being present in court, Hunter Biden patiently awaits the jury’s decision while being surrounded by supportive family and friends, including his wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, and stepmother, the First Lady.
Fun fact: Hunter married South African activist and filmmaker Melissa Cohen just a week after meeting her in 2019. They welcomed a baby boy named Beau in 2020, honoring Hunter’s late brother.
While Joe Biden is celebrating Juneteenth in Wilmington, the Biden family is coping with the trial’s emotional proceedings.
Let’s see how the case unfolds for Hunter Biden and what the jury’s verdict will be.
