Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, is facing serious legal troubles due to a federal indictment on three gun-related charges. These charges stem from allegations that he lied about his drug use on a federal form while purchasing a firearm in 2018 and illegally possessed the weapon as a drug user.

If convicted, Hunter Biden could face up to 25 years in prison and substantial fines, although actual sentencing could be less severe due to federal guidelines for first-time offenders.

His legal team has argued that these charges are politically motivated and has made attempts to dismiss them, but a federal judge has scheduled the trial to begin on June 3, 2024.

This trial adds to his other legal issues, including ongoing investigations into his tax affairs.
