WASHINGTON — Hunter Biden’s continued legal problems may no longer be a political concern for the president, but they’re still very much a personal concern.
It’s unclear whether the Biden family will attend the trial, which begins Thursday with jury selection in a Los Angeles federal court. First lady Jill Biden sat in the courtroom nearly every day of Hunter Biden’s trial in Delaware, flying home from France to be there only to turn around and return for an elaborate state visit at Élysée Palace.
The gun case resurfaced tawdry and embarrassing details surrounding Hunter Biden’s spiral into a crack cocaine addiction before becoming sober in 2019. Jurors saw personal text messages and photos of Hunter Biden with drug paraphernalia or partially clothed as prosecutors worked to convince them that he lied when he swore on a federal form to buy a gun in 2018 that he wasn’t a drug user.
Hunter has remained by his father’s side in the months since the gun trial. He and other relatives watched from the Oval Office as the president gave his address to the nation explaining why he decided to quit the presidential race. And he joined his father on stage last month at the Democratic National Convention after the president’s speech endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris.
It’s unclear how many of the lurid details jurors will hear. U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi said he will maintain “strict control” over the presentation of potentially salacious evidence after the defense pressed the judge to keep it out of the case.
