The cases - ranging from felony theft to drug possession - were all either thrown out, or resulted in light sentences with no jail time, according to a Post review of public records and published reports.
<><> The trouble for Ashley Biden, 39, started with a pot bust when she was a student at Tulane University in 1999. New Orleans police confirmed the possession arrest of the daughter of the then-Delaware senator, but no conviction was recorded in court records.
<><>Ten years later, during her father’s vice-presidency, video circulated showing a woman resembling Ashley snorting what appeared to be cocaine at a party. Joe Biden refused to comment on the reports, and there were no legal consequences.
<><> A second misdemeanor arrest for the Biden daughter was reported in 2002 after she allegedly attempted to obstruct a police officer - making “intimidating statements” - after a bottle-throwing brawl outside a Chicago bar. The charges were dropped.
