What to know about Hunter Biden’s criminal trial
- Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden's only surviving son, faces three charges tied to the possession of a gun while using narcotics. He has pleaded not guilty.
- The jury heard testimony from Hallie Biden, the wife of Hunter Biden's late brother Beau Biden. Hallie and Hunter Biden were romantically involved after Beau's death, and she disposed of the gun at the heart of the case. She spoke about her own drug use, Hunter Biden's addiction and why she threw out his gun.
- Defense lawyer Abbe Lowell tried to poke holes in her testimony by pointing out that Hunter Biden lied to her about his whereabouts. He also grew frustrated after she repeatedly said she couldn't remember specific details from the time period around when she found the gun.
- Before Hallie Biden took the stand, the jury heard testimony from Gordon Cleveland, the man who sold him the gun at the heart of the case, this morning. Jurors also heard from Ed Banner, the man who testified he found found Hunter Biden's gun in the trash can outside the grocery store where Hallie Biden disposed of it, and Millard Greer, a former Delaware State Police lieutenant.
