Beau Biden, then the attorney general of Delaware, speaks at the 2012 Democratic National Convention. WILMINGTON, Del. — During jury selection on the first day of Hunter Biden’s trial here on charges of lying on a gun purchase form, a potential juror recalled playing squash with Beau Biden, Hunter’s older brother, and coaching Beau’s children in youth sports.
The defense has suggested that by the time of the gun purchase, in October 2018, Hunter was doing better and not necessarily under the influence. On Wednesday, Hunter’s ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, told the court that a few weeks after Beau’s death, she found a crack pipe in an ashtray on the side porch of their house. “I was worried,” she said. “Scared.”
When she found crack cocaine around the house, she said, she had to Google it because she wasn’t sure what it was. But Hunter introduced her to the drug and they became a pair of addicts in an on-again, off-again relationship, occasionally pushing one another into rehab only to relapse.Advertisement Hunter Biden’s trial got underway on June 3, just days after the ninth anniversary of Beau’s death. President Biden visited Hallie’s home around that time to meet with her and her children, though White House officials said that had nothing to do with the trial where she would soon appear as a witness.
