During cross-examination, Hallie Biden testified that she did not witness Hunter Biden doing drugs between October 6 and October 22, 2018, while he was in Delaware.
This testimony could potentially be beneficial for Hunter Biden's defense as it pertains to the timeline of events surrounding his gun purchase during that period. However, it is important to note that earlier in the proceedings, Hallie had indicated to prosecutors that she believed Hunter appeared to be under the influence when she saw him that month.
Furthermore, Hallie Biden also revealed details about the complexities of her relationship with Hunter Biden, describing it as on-again-off-again and characterized by instances where he would not be forthcoming with the truth and would lie about his whereabouts.
Defense attorney Abbe Lowell has put forth the argument that in the days following Hunter Biden's gun purchase, he was actively trying to conceal information from Hallie Biden. Lowell cited text messages where Hunter allegedly mentioned smoking crack, which the defense claims was not true.
