0:20Now PlayingHunter Biden didn’t knowingly lie when he filled out a form to buy a gun in 2018 and checked a box contending that he wasn’t using drugs, his lawyer told a jury on Tuesday for his trial in Delaware federal court.
“He didn’t knowingly violate the law,” Biden’s lead defense lawyer, Abbe Lowell, said at the start of an unprecedented criminal case against the son of a sitting president. “The charges against Hunter are not minor. They are serious.”
Biden’s defense to an indictment brought by Special Counsel David Weiss appears to hinge on a technical reading of firearm laws and the form he filled out to buy the gun when he answered “no” to a question about whether he was an active unlawful user of any controlled substance.
