Jury deliberations began Monday in the federal criminal trial of Hunter Biden after prosecutors laid out what they described as “overwhelming” evidence against the president’s son as he faces gun charges.
The panel deliberated for about an hour in the late afternoon before it was sent home for the day.
Abbe Lowell, Biden’s attorney, urged the jury to find his client not guilty, arguing prosecutors had offered only “speculation or conjecture” — not hard evidence — that Biden was using drugs around the time he bought a Colt Cobra revolver at a Wilmington gun store.
