Hunter Biden's ongoing gun trial heard testimony from his former love interest and widow of his late brother Beau Biden, Hallie, on June 6, 2024. According to Hallie's testimony, she found the firearm in Hunter's car, and immediately threw it in the nearby grocery store trashcan as she "panicked" at the mere sight of it.
Additionally, she also told the court that she first began smoking crack cocaine with POTUS Joe Biden's son's help and she's extremely ashamed of her past life, as per Daily Mail. Before Hallie's testimony, the court had Hunter's past romances as witnesses, his ex-wife for nearly 25 years Kathleen Buhle, and his ex-girlfriend Zoe Kestan, whom he met in 2017, to discuss the effects of his addiction on the relationships.
However, Hallie is a key witness in the federal gun trial. She began dating her brother-in-law after her husband Beau's death but the relationship succumbed to anguish, addictions (including her own), and a criminal prosecution of Hunter. She remains the most crucial person in the federal case because she has detailed, intimate information about the businessman's drug consumption.
Prosecutors then shared the surveillance video of Hallie discarding the gun in a supermarket's trashcan who returned after half an hour to retrieve it. The sister-in-law-turned-lover confessed, "I realize it was a stupid idea now, but I was just so panicked," echoing the text messages she sent Hunter.
