Hunter’s Women: The Three Exes Tangled Up in Biden’s Trial
One is a church-going executive of a non-profit. One is a dancer at a strip club. One was a school counselor married to Hunter Biden’s brother, Beau. But what do they all have in common? All three are former romantic partners of Hunter Biden and could be the key to making him the first son of a president ever to be convicted of criminal charges.
All three testified for the prosecution this week in Delaware federal court, where Biden is facing three charges in connection with an October 2018 federal firearms application. The women could not be more different, but each provided intimate testimony about their relationship with Biden and his self-destructive behavior linked to his escalating drug use over the last decade.
The gut-wrenching testimonies took up at least two days of a trial in which prosecutors are trying to prove that Biden knowingly lied about his drug addiction on a form to buy a gun. Critics, however, believe the airing of Biden’s love life and drug habits in open court is just meant to humiliate the president’s son for a criminal charge that is rarely prosecuted.
