Judge Maryellen Noreika recently delivered a one-year sentence to a defendant in a gun case, which may give insight into how she might sentence Hunter Biden if found guilty. Hunter is charged with false statements and possession of a firearm while being an unlawful user of controlled substances. The case involves Hunter using crack when purchasing the firearm and the gun being found discarded near a school. The judge's sentencing of another defendant for lying on government forms about his address when buying guns may indicate a strict approach to gun-related offenses.
