The jury of six men and six women that convicted Hunter Biden on three felony gun charges Tuesday wanted to review the evidence and didn’t want to “rush judgment,” said one anonymous juror in an interview with CBS News. The juror also said politics didn’t factor into their decision.
“We never talked about the president throughout the deliberation,” said anonymous juror No. 10. “…Politics was not a factor in this case.”
The Delaware-based jury deliberated for about three hours after receiving the case Monday afternoon. When jurors initially took a vote to feel out where they stood, the vote was 6-6, said juror No. 10.
President Biden, who has stayed away from the trial, changed his schedule Tuesday to fly to Wilmington. The president issued a statement saying he will accept the outcome of the case, and loves his son.
Hunter Biden could face up to 25 years in prison, but sentencing is out of the jury’s hands. That will be up to the judge. A sentencing date has yet to be set.
“He’s just like anybody else,” the anonymous juror said of Hunter Biden. “He needs more help than he needs jail. Jail is not gonna help somebody.”
