Hunter Biden’s Trial For Gun-Related Charges Kicks Off

This marks the first time in U.S. history that the child of a sitting president is going on trial. It could potentially impact President Biden's reelection bid.

Hunter Biden’s trial for gun-related charges kicked off Monday with jury selection.

Biden is accused of illegally purchasing and possessing a firearm while abusing or being addicted to drugs, which is a violation of federal law. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges, but he has been open about his struggles with alcohol or cocaine.

This marks the first time in U.S. history that the child of a sitting president is going on trial. It could potentially impact President Biden’s reelection bid.

If convicted on all three counts, the president’s son could face up to 25 years in prison.
