WILMINGTON, Delaware — Twelve jurors and four alternates were chosen Monday to decide Hunter Biden’s fate in the case against the first son related to a 2018 gun purchase.
Roughly 65 prospective jurors entered a federal courtroom in Wilmington one by one to answer questions while Biden, his defense attorneys, and some of his family members, including first lady Jill Biden, watched attentively.
Hunter Biden’s wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, first daughter Ashley Biden, and Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris were also in attendance. On the government’s side, special counsel David Weiss watched the proceedings.
Jurors were weeded out less for their political views about the Biden family and more for their perspectives on drug addiction and Second Amendment rights.
Hunter Biden is facing felony gun charges brought by Weiss over allegations he lied on a federal gun form in 2018 about his drug use to purchase a revolver and then kept the gun for 11 days.
The trial will continue Tuesday, during which the government will begin presenting its case against the first son. The trial is expected to last up to two weeks.

Hunter Biden is facing three felony charges and up to 25 years in prison. While he could be sentenced to jail time if convicted, it is highly unlikely he would receive the maximum penalty.
