The son of Vice1 President Joe Biden was discharged from the U.S. Navy reserve earlier this year after testing positive for cocaine2, sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday.
据知情人士10月16日透露,美国副总统乔·拜登之子因可卡因药检呈阳性,于今年早些时候被海军预备役部队除名。
The sources, who were not authorized3 to speak on the record, said Hunter Biden tested positive for cocaine in a drug test administered in June 2013.
Navy spokesman Commander Ryan Perry confirmed that Biden was discharged from the Navy reserve in February 2014 but said privacy laws prevented him from releasing any details.
Perry said Biden was selected for a direct commission in the Navy Reserve as a part-time ensign in 2012 and was assigned to a public affairs unit in Norfolk, Virginia in May 2013.
Biden, 44, a partner at an investment firm, said he regretted the incident.
"It was the honor of my life to serve in the U.S. Navy, and I deeply regret and am embarrassed that my actions led to my administrative4 discharge," Biden said in a statement provided by his lawyer. "I respect the Navy's decision. With the love and support of my family, I'm moving forward."
