Drugs: Evidence found against Hunter Biden in illegal drugs case

Washington:Washington: The evidence against U.S. President Joe Biden’s son was grim but it proved he was guilty of making false statements about his use of illegal drugs on a background check form when he bought a gun, a government prosecutor told the jury on Monday. “It was personal and it was ugly and it was heavy,” government prosecutor Leo Wise told the 12-member jury during closing arguments in the trial of son Hunter Biden, 54. “But it was also necessary.” The federal government’s case, the first criminal trial of a U.S. president’s child, last week offered an intimate view of the younger Biden’s years of struggle with alcohol and crack cocaine abuse, which prosecutors say legally barred him from buying a gun.
