Jury begins deliberating in Hunter Biden's trial on gun charges
SUMMARY
Jurors have begun deliberating in Hunter Biden’s trial on gun charges. The president’s son is accused of lying about his drug use on a federal form when purchasing a gun in 2018. Prosecutors argued there is “overwhelming” evidence that Biden knowingly violated the law. However, defense attorney Abbe Lowell contended the prosecution relied on circumstantial evidence and lacked firm proof. The jury heard testimonies from multiple witnesses, including Hallie Biden, Hunter’s daughter Naomi Biden, and a DEA agent. Deliberations started after both sides presented their closing arguments, with the defense emphasizing the prosecution’s failure to meet the burden of proof.
