President Joe Biden released a statement on Tuesday saying that he will accept the outcome of the federal criminal case against his son, Hunter Biden, after a jury convicted him of all charges related to his illegal purchase of a firearm.
Jurors convicted Hunter Biden, 54, on three felony counts of lying on paperwork for a revolver and owning the firearm while being a drug addict in 2018. The verdict, reached on the second day of jury deliberations, could land Hunter Biden in prison for up to 25 years and lead to fines as high as $750,000.
“As I said last week, I am the President, but I am also a Dad,” Joe Biden said. “Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today. So many families who have had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride seeing someone you love come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery.”

“As I also said last week, I will accept the outcome of this case and will continue to respect the judicial process as Hunter considers an appeal,” he continued. “Jill and I will always be there for Hunter and the rest of our family with our love and support. Nothing will ever change that.”
