Likely will rest today. we don t know what the defense has planned for next week. but for people not following along, how has this prosecution case opinion made so far? has it been effective? what do you expect to see from the defense? well, the prosecution case, willie, focused heavily on hunter biden s addiction, sometimes using his own words against him in the form of an audio version of the book he authored. what they are trying to show is that hunter biden knowingly and intentionally lied on the form he filled out when he purchased the gun, that he understood he was a habitual drug user. all these people around the time period are testifying to his drug use. the testimony was wrenching, messy. it calls up not only the sympathies of anyone who had a family member who struggled with addiction, but the messiness of family life. there is no situation messier for the bidens than the entanglement between hunter and his sister-in-law, hallie biden,
