So, what’s the deal with Hunter Biden‘s trial? Well, it’s actually about his dad, Joe Biden, too. The trial, which is now in its second week in Wilmington, Delaware, involves allegations that Hunter lied in 2018 to buy a gun by denying his drug use. It’s a big deal because he’s the first son of a former president facing criminal charges. If convicted, he could face a fine of up to $750,000 and a 25-year sentence, but he denies the accusations.
