Hunter Biden has arrived at the federal courthouse in Delaware for day 5 of his trial on a gun charge. The trial, taking place in Wilmington, has seen key witnesses such as Hallie Biden, Hunter's former sister-in-law and lover, testify for 5 hours. Hallie, who was previously married to Beau Biden, the state's attorney general, has provided text exchanges between her and Hunter, including one where she mentions police involvement and Hunter's dismissive response.
The trial centers around an incident where Hallie found a 38 caliber Colt Cobra revolver in Hunter's car and disposed of it outside a local shop. The gun purchase led to the current legal proceedings. The courtroom was shown a photo of the revolver as evidence.
Notable figures attending the trial include President Biden's sister, Valerie, and his brother, James, who is expected to testify in support of Hunter. President Biden has made it clear that he will accept the jury's verdict and has ruled out a pardon for his son, emphasizing respect for the legal process.
Meanwhile, First Lady Jill Biden has returned from Europe, where she commemorated the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion, to attend the trial. Her presence in the courtroom adds to the significance of the proceedings.
