Following the unanimous verdict in the trial of Hunter Biden, there has been a split among jurors regarding the use of time and resources in the case. While one juror expressed the opinion that the trial was a waste of taxpayer money, another juror believed it was a legitimate use of funds, citing the judge's instructions as the basis for their decision.
The case has attracted attention from high-profile figures, including Senator Lindsey Graham and Representative Matt Gates, who questioned the necessity of the trial. Special counsel David Wise defended the case, stating that it was about illegal choices and upholding the rule of law.
Despite the scrutiny, Hunter Biden focused on the support he received from family, friends, and members of the clergy in Wilmington. Prosecutors cautioned the jury not to be influenced by the presence of notable individuals, including the first lady, during their deliberations.
After the verdict, Hunter Biden expressed gratitude to his supporters by personally thanking each individual in a receiving line. The sentencing phase is set to take place in approximately 120 days, with expectations for further developments in the case.
