Jurors in Hunter Biden’s gun demo started deliberating Monday after they listened to new evidence from a witness about his drug use in Oct 2018, all around the time he is alleged to have illegally procured a firearm.
Prosecutors rested their case immediately after they instructed jurors that Biden was a “habitual” user of medications from 2015 to 2019, a period of time that overlaps with his gun possession, and that he understood he was an addict and even wrote extensively about it in his memoir.
His direct defense lawyer, Abbe Lowell, claimed that although Biden might be an addict, prosecutors had not proven that he knowingly lied past affordable question on the kind he applied to obtain the gun.
“With this extremely significant stress, it is time to end this circumstance,” Lowell explained.
