Hunter Biden convicted on criminal gun charges in US trial
==========
Hunter Biden has been convicted on criminal gun charges in a US trial. The trial concluded with the jury finding Biden guilty of false statement on a firearms application and possession of a firearm by an unlawful user of a controlled substance. The charges stem from an incident in which Biden allegedly lied on a background check form when purchasing a firearm and later discarded the firearm in a trash can near a school. The trial lasted for several days and included testimony from witnesses and evidence presented by the prosecution. Biden's defense argued that he did not intentionally lie on the form and that he was not aware of the firearm's location near the school. The conviction carries a potential sentence of up to 10 years in prison. The sentencing hearing is scheduled for a later date.
