US President Joe Biden’s son is accused of illegal gun possession while still a drug addict – Halle had an affair with Hunter in late 2015 or early 2016.
His brother’s widow Hunter Biden testified in court Thursday that he had found crack cocaine and a revolver in his van, bolstering the indictment against him.
The 54-year-old son of US President Joe Biden accused of illegal possession of a weapon while still a drug addict. He is the first child of a sitting president to be prosecuted in the United States.
Jurors heard testimony this week from witnesses, including Hunter Biden’s ex-wife and a former partner, about his past drug addiction, which he has publicly admitted.
Hallie Biden, the widow of Hunter’s brother Bo Biden (pictured), who died in 2015 after a battle with cancer – testified that she often cleaned Hunter Biden’s truck looking for drugs in an effort to help him recover.
He told jurors he had found footprints that bore witness that he smoked crack, such as small amounts and paraphernalia, as well as a 38-gauge Colt Cobra revolver (photo). She feared that either she or her children could be injured by the gun. “I panicked and wanted to get rid of it,” Hallie Biden testified, adding that she threw it in a trash can outside a grocery store. Halle has also said she had romance with Hunter late 2015 or early 2016.
For his part, Hunter Biden insists he is innocent. Defense attorney Abby Lowell emphasized that his client was not using drugs when he bought the gun in October 2018, and added that he did not try to deceive authorities. since he did not consider himself a drug addict at the time.
If convicted, Hunter Biden is at risk of impeachment imprisonment for up to 25 years.
