WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — Federal prosecutors aimed to wrap up their gun case against Hunter Biden on Friday with two final witnesses in their effort to prove that the president's son lied on a mandatory gun purchase form when he said he was not illegally using or addicted to drugs.
Hunter Biden arrives to federal court, Friday, June 7, 2024, in Wilmington, Del. on Friday with two final witnesses in their effort to prove that the president's son lied on a mandatory gun purchase form when he said he was not illegally using or addicted to drugs.
His attorney, Abbe Lowell, has argued Hunter did not think of himself as an “addict” when he bought the gun and did not intend to deceive anyone. Hunter Biden said he got charged because the Justice Department bowed to pressure from Republicans who argued the Democratic president’s son was getting special treatment, and who have escalated their attacks on the criminal justice systembut it's unclear yet whether Hunter Biden will testify.
The reason law enforcement raised any questions about the revolver is because Hallie Biden, Beau's widow, found it unloaded in Hunter's truck on Oct. 23, 2018, panicked and tossed it into a garbage can at a nearby market. She testified about the episode Thursday.
