Hallie Biden, the late Beau Biden’s widow and Hunter Biden’s former sister-in-law and romantic partner, disclosed in court that Hunter introduced her to crack cocaine in 2018. She confessed to feeling embarrassed and ashamed of the episode, expressing regret for that phase of her life. Hallie shared that she ceased using the drug by August that year, contrasting with Hunter’s continued use.
Hallie Biden, Hunter Biden’s sister-in-law-turned-lover, admitted that she’s “embarrassed” and “ashamed” that Hunter got her hooked on crack in 2018.
On Thursday, Hallie — the widow of Hunter’s late brother Beau Biden — testified in federal court that the first son introduced her to crack cocaine during the summer of 2018. She made the admission when she took the stand on day 4 of Hunter’s Delaware trial, where he faces several gun-related charges, the New York Post reported.
Halie, who told the courtroom that the two became romantically involved in late 2015 or early 2016, said that after they started dating she learned of Biden’s use of the drug.
“I found it [crack] and Googled it because I didn’t know what it was,” Hallie said of finding it in her Wilmington home. “He told me what it was, crack cocaine.”
Biden’s sister-in-law — who testified on the guarantee of immunity — said she started using the drug too in June 2018 but was done with it by August that year, telling the prosecution that it was Hunter who had introduced her to the illegal substance.

“It was a terrible experience I went through and I’m embarrassed and I’m ashamed,” Hallie said. I regret that time of my life.”
Hallie said while she was done with it by the end of that summer, Hunter wasn’t — and she witnessed the first son smoking it. She also said she went with him to get to the illegal street drug.
Biden’s sister-in-law said when he used the drug it would result in him becoming “agitated [and] high-strung. But other times [he was] functioning as well.”
Pivotal to the case, Hallie also testified about finding Hunter’s gun — which he’s charged with illegally owning while on drugs in October 2018.
She said she found it when she went “to clean out any drugs or alcohol in the car … in an effort to help him get or stay sober.”
“Aside from trash and clothes, I found remnants of crack cocaine, paraphernalia — oh, and the gun, obviously,” Hallie told the court.
“I panicked and I wanted to get rid of them,” she added, of the gun and ammunition. “I didn’t want him to hurt himself or [for] my kids to find it and hurt themselves.”
She said she ended up putting the gun in a leather pouch and tossing it in the trash at her grocery store.
Hunter is charged with lying on a form in order to purchase a handgun in October 2018. Because Hunter is a drug addict, he should have checked a box indicating such, and not doing so amounted to making a false statement material to a firearms sale and making a false statement in a firearms transaction record, Reuters reported.
Those are the first two charges against Hunter. The third relates to Hunter violating a law banning drug users and addicts from possessing firearms.
