Hunter Biden trial jury begin deliberations | BBC News


Jurors in the Hunter Biden gun case have begun deliberating, and must now decide the fate of the US president’s son.

The 54-year-old is accused of lying about his drug use on a federal form while buying a weapon in 2018.

For days, prosecutors presented evidence to suggest that Mr Biden was in the throes of addiction when he purchased the gun in Delaware.

His defence team say he was in recovery and therefore not a drug user at the time.

Mr Biden, who did not testify, denies the three related charges.

If convicted, he could face up 25 years in prison.
