"And those mistakes can have serious consequences -- not just for them, but for everyone else."The juror -- whose father was killed by gunfire when he was young -- said prosecutors successfully showed that Hunter Biden's drug use around the time of his gun purchase was "too close for me to consider him not a user or addict at that point.""There's too many patterns that I can see that showed that he was using it when he purchased the gun," the juror said.Jun 11, 2:04 PM'Politics never came into play,' juror tells ABC NewsA member of the jury in Hunter Biden's gun case told ABC News that "politics never came into play" in deliberations and that "the verdict absolutely was not politically motivated."The juror said "it wasn't that hard" to reach a verdict, but said the panel of 12 had to overcome a six-six vote on yesterday afternoon when deliberations began.When jurors returned this morning and deliberated further, he said they determined that prosecutors had met their burden of proof."If you're an addict, you're an addict," he said.The juror said evidence that placed Hunter Biden at a 7/11 convenience store -- a place where he repeatedly said in his memoir and in text messages that he purchased drugs -- days prior to his gun purchase tipped them over the top.Jun 11, 1:53 PMOfficials to discuss security plans should Hunter Biden be jailedA senior official who has been briefed on the matter tells ABC News that the Secret Service has not started planning for the possibility that Hunter Biden could be sentenced to prison.

"No one in this country is above the law," he said.Weiss, a Trump appointee, thanked Attorney General Merrick Garland for "ensuring that we have the independence to appropriately pursue our investigations and prosecutions."Jun 11, 1:18 PMTrial was 'waste of taxpayers' dollars,' juror tells ABC NewsA member of the jury that found Hunter Biden guilty told ABC News after the verdict that the trial was a "waste of taxpayers' dollars.""I just think he needs help. He needs rehab," the juror told ABC News regarding the defendant. "In my opinion, this is a waste of taxpayers' dollars. They should have fined him."Asked what she thinks a fair sentence would be, the juror said, "I don't think that anyone who is a nonviolent drug addict should be in prison. Just fine him. We know he did something wrong. Just fine him. He needs help."She said the jurors "worked together really well.""Considering who his father is and the political climate in this country, it turned out better than I expected," she said. "There was no fighting in the jury room."Judge Maryellen Noreika said before court ended that she would schedule a sentencing date in the next 120 days.
