Hunter Biden has a phalanx of supporters in the courtroom today — 15-plus at last count, including first lady Jill Biden; his wife, Melissa Cohen Biden; his sister, Ashley Biden; friend Kevin Morris; his aunt Valerie Biden Owens and her husband, Jack. The women in his family are seated next to one another other directly behind him in a strong show of support.The prosecution and the defense are now meeting with Judge Noreika to discuss finalizing the jury instructions.

His aunt and uncle, Valerie Biden Owens and James Biden, had arrived a little earlier. Brian McGlinchey, a longtime supporter of the family, is also in attendance.After a meeting about jury instructions this morning, we expect the defense either to call Hunter Biden to the stand or to rest its case.
