Hunter Biden, the son of United States President, Joe Biden, has been convicted on all three federal firearms charges.
A jury found Hunter Biden guilty on Tuesday on federal gun charges and is currently awaiting sentencing.
The 12-person jury found the US president’s son lied about his drug use on a form when purchasing a handgun in 2018.
Biden now faces a possible prison term of up to 25 years, although a sentence of that length for a first-time offender is highly unlikely, the BBC reports.
The jury deliberated after listening to a week of witness testimony about the 54-year-old’s drug addiction.
The judge said a sentencing is usually set for 120 days following a verdict, which would put it in mid-October
The conviction will be the first criminal prosecution of the child of a sitting US president.
