romantically involved with hunter biden. when abbe lowell, the defense attorney had his chance to deliver his opening statements, he tried to lay out the chain of custody for the gun that hunter biden purchased. he tried to over the course of explaining that timeline prove that -- at least create some reasonable doubt about whether or not hunter was addicted to drugs, using drugs at the time. so he noted that there had been some cocaine residue that was found on the weapon after it was discovered, and mr. lowell suggested based on the fact that it was in a locked box in the car, that hunter biden had been using, that hallie, when she recovered the gun, may have been responsible for the cocaine residue being put on it. this is something that will be litigated over the course of the coming weeks here. and it speaks to why the family is so concerned about this moment. the president, the first lady are looking at this as parents, but also as grandparents and, of course, hallie biden was with the first family last week when
