Crack Cocaine, a Colt Cobra Revolver, and an Alleged Lie

On a Friday evening in October 2018, Hunter Biden rolled up in a black Cadillac to StarQuest Shooters & Survival Supply in the Delaware city where he had been born and raised.

A salesman standing in the window didn’t initially recognize him as the son of the state’s longtime Democratic senator, now-President Biden, and would later recall declining a tip from the younger Biden as he purchased a .38-caliber Colt Cobra revolver.

There will be no mistaking Hunter Biden on Monday when he appears in federal court for his criminal trial on charges stemming from that 2018 purchase. He arrived in the courtroom of U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika for the start of jury selection.

If you need a curtain-raiser for the trial, this is a pretty good look at it. We'll have more as the trial develops, but be wary of anecdotes from the testimony. It's better to wait for the totality of the evidentiary phase to be completed before drawing any conclusions.
