But Hunter’s real legal troubles began in October 2018 when he bought a .38-caliber handgun from a gun store in Wilmington, Delaware. Although he asserted on a US government form he was not using drugs at the time of the purchase, it was later found Hunter was still struggling with his addiction to crack cocaine.
An investigation was launched after Hallie Biden disposed of the firearm in a trash can outside a supermarket near her home.
Hunter was ultimately found guilty of three federal gun charges on June 11, 2024 after being indicted in September 2023.
The charges included one count of making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm, one count of making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federal firearm licensed dealer and one count of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.
