The evidence was collected from Biden’s iCloud account, laptop and phone messages, prosecutors say.
The government said it might call Hunter Biden’s ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, and other romantic partners to describe his addiction around the time of the gun’s purchase and possession.
Prosecutors said they plan to introduce excerpts from Biden’s 2021 book Beautiful Things, in which he described himself as a “crack addict” with no plans beyond “the moment-to-moment demands of the crack pipe.”
