First lady Jill Biden, Hunter Biden, son of U.S. President Joe Biden, joined by his wife Melissa Cohen Biden, leave the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building on June 11, 2024, in Wilmington, Delaware.

The jurors who convicted Hunter Biden on all three felony charges on Thursday are revealing the most convincing evidence that led to his conviction.

They were particularly affected by Biden's eldest daughter, Naomi Biden, 30, who was one juror-a 51-year-old Black woman from upper Delaware-calling it the most compelling testimony.

"It just seemed so sad for her to see her father in such a state. She was happy when she thought he was getting better, then he relapsed," the juror told the New York Post.

Adding, "I just think she probably just wants her dad to be like he was before her uncle (Beau Biden) died. And to be able to depend on him."

A second juror, a 68-year-old from Sussex County, said that Naomi's testimony was especially effective.

"I felt sorry for Naomi; I really did. I don't think any daughter should have to be up there testifying on her father's behalf," he said.

"That was heartbreaking, and I think all the jurors felt the same thing."

The Sussex County juror admitted that he "probably wouldn't have called her" when asked if the defense made a mistake by calling Biden's daughter to the stand.

Damning text messages between Hunter, 54, and his sister-in-law, Hallie, also influenced the jury.

"In my opinion, he was trying to get drugs," the upper Delaware juror said of the text exchanges dated days after Hunter illegally purchased a.38-caliber revolver after lying about his crack cocaine addiction on a background form.

When Hallie Biden took the stand for the prosecution last week, she was shown a text exchange dated October 13, 2018-one day after Hunter purchased the gun-and asked what Hunter was referring to when he wrote, "waiting for a dealer named Mookie."

She responded, "That he was buying crack cocaine."

Speaking to The Post after deliberating for three hours across two days, the female juror told the media outlet that President Biden's son "looks kind of defeated."

"He looks kind of helpless to me," she added.

"I think he just needs to get away somewhere and get some real rehab, if he hasn't. Hopefully he's still not using."

The Sussex County juror agreed that the photos and text messages were particularly crucial to the prosecution's case.

"Prior to him buying the gun, he was making [drug] deals, and so that played a big part in the decision," the man said.

Following an hour of deliberation on Monday afternoon, he stated that the jury was divided 6-6 on conviction in an informal vote.

By the time the jury reconvened Tuesday, five panelists had changed their minds.

Both jurors confessed they felt bad for the Biden family throughout the testimony, which outlined Hunter's painful spiral into addiction.

The female juror believes Hunter "needs rehab, definitely not imprisonment."

"I was expecting all of us to be at each other's throats, you know, because of who his father is and how the political climate is in this country," she said, adding that the trial "was a waste of taxpayers' dollars."
