Joe Biden Releases Statement After Son Hunter Found Guilty of All Three Gun Felonies
Joe Biden on Tuesday afternoon released a statement after jurors reached a verdict in Hunter Biden’s criminal gun trial.
Hunter Biden was found guilty of all three felonies. He is facing 25 years in prison.
Prosecutors proved that Hunter Biden was smoking crack when he purchased a firearm in 2018.
Joe Biden didn’t mention his son Hunter’s gun crimes. He kept his focus on Hunter’s drug addiction to garner sympathy.
“As I said last week, I am the President, but I am also a dad. Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today. So many families who have had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride seeing someone you love come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery,” Biden said.
