Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, was convicted on Tuesday (June 11) in a firearms case by a jury in Wilmington, Delaware. This information was reported by CNN.

The jury found Hunter Biden guilty on all three charges following a week-long trial and testimony. The charges stemmed from an incident in 2018 when Hunter Biden purchased a handgun and provided false information about his drug addiction during the purchase.

This conviction marks the first time a sitting president's son has been found guilty in such a case. Hunter Biden could face prison time as a result of this conviction. Analysts suggest that this development could place significant pressure on President Biden ahead of the upcoming election.
