The shock texts show his brother’s widow Hallie Biden, 50, telling Hunter Biden: “I called you 500 times in the past 24 hours.”
To which Hunter Biden replies saying he was parked up on 4th street and Rodney and that he had been “sleeping on a car smoking crack”, FBI agent Erika Jensen testifying at his trial said.
He then goes on to reveal this is his “truth”.
Jurors are set to hear in the coming days about Hallie Biden’s alleged crack addiction that grew during a brief relationship with Hunter Biden.
The pair were said to have been involved in a sordid affair.
It’s believed that Hallie took the gun from Hunter Biden when finding out about its illegal nature before tossing it into the garbage at a nearby market.
The weapon was later found by someone collecting cans and handed over to the cops.
Overall, he is charged with three felonies stemming from the purchase of the gun in October 2018, and faces three firearm-related charges for allegedly owning a gun while being an active drug user in 2018.
Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Joe Biden’s son is accused of knowingly lying on a form about his illicit drug use in order to buy a revolver and bullets from a gun shop in Wilmington, Delaware.
Prosecutors told the jury in their opening statement at the the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building that Hunter Biden was trying to score drugs just days after he lied on the form.
An audio excerpt of his 2021 memoir Beautiful Things was played for jurors in which he talked about going back to Delaware around the time of the gun purchase.
Federal prosecutor Derek Hines said during the bombshell trial: “No one is allowed to lie on a federal form like that, even Hunter Biden.
“He crossed the line when he chose to buy a gun and lied about a federal background check … the defendant’s choice to buy a gun is why we are here.
“When the defendant filled out that form, he knew he was a drug addict, and prosecutors don’t have to prove he was using that day.
“Addiction is depressing, but Hunter Biden’s addiction isn’t the reason for the case.”
Hines added: “It was illegal because he was user of crack and a drug addict. No one is above the law.”
The testimony continued with a cross-examination of an FBI agent who was being questioned over the timing of Hunter Biden’s drug use.
