Tearful Hunter Biden watches daughter Naomi testify how ‘things got bad’ after his brother Beau’s death

A tearful Hunter Biden watched his daughter Naomi testify on Friday that “things got bad” following the death of her uncle, Beau Biden.

The president’s son is accused of having purchased a firearm in October 2018, and lying on a federal form stating that he wasn’t actively struggling with substance abuse at the time.

The defense began by calling a former employee and owner of the gun shop where Hunter purchased the firearm on 12 October, 2018 before calling President Joe Biden’s granddaughter, Naomi Biden. Closing arguments are expected on Monday.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, the court had heard extensive excerpts from Hunter Biden’s audiobook, Beautiful Things, in which he shared the breadth and depth of his drug use. The book, which Hunter began writing in 2019 and was published in 2021, covers four years of what he called “active addiction.”

Naomi, 30, the eldest of Hunter Biden’s three daughters, admitted that she was “nervous” when she took the stand on Friday at the courthouse in Wilmington, Delaware.

Beau Biden died of brain cancer in 2015, something President Biden believes was caused by the burn pits used in Iraq to burn waste created by warfare.

Naomi testified that she was in her early 20s when her parents got divorced.

Her mother, Kathleen Buhle has already testified, saying on Wednesday that Hunter Biden grew «angry» and
