在6月3日审判前提交的法庭文件中，特别顾问魏红星办公室表示，他们将传唤多名与亨特·拜登有关系的女性作证在他的持枪重罪案件中包括他的前妻凯瑟琳·布勒和他已故哥哥博·拜登的遗孀海莉·拜登。
周一晚间，在政府提交的庭审简报中披露了这一情况。这份97页的文件包括检察官计划用来证明亨特·拜登犯有三项重罪的法律和证据当他在2018年购买枪支时在药物的影响下。
亨特·拜登拒不认罪。
该文件没有提到布勒或哈里·拜登的名字。但是这些描述清楚地表明了他们的身份。
检察官在文件中写道:“1号证人此前曾与被告结婚。“他们于2017年4月离婚，但在2018年全年，她会不时检查他的车辆，因为她不想让他们的孩子坐在装有毒品的车辆里。”
检察官将3号证人描述为一名女性，她“在2018年10月与被告发生了浪漫关系，前后都是如此。”
“3号证人还将证明被告持有这把枪，她在特拉华州威尔明顿的让桑市场把枪从他的车上拿下来后扔在了一个户外垃圾桶里，”检察官写道。
美国广播公司新闻此前报道称，哈里·拜登发现了眼镜蛇38SPL左轮手枪，并将其丢弃在垃圾桶内。
第三名身份不明的女性检察官计划称其与拜登“以前有过浪漫关系”，并“观察到被告经常使用快克可卡因——除了睡觉时以外，每20分钟一次。”
韦斯办公室的检察官还表示，他们打算大量借鉴亨特·拜登2021年的回忆录《美好事物》(Beautiful Things)中的段落，拜登在其中谈到了他的成瘾问题。他们还计划将证明他在2018年10月12日购买枪支时上瘾的几条信息作为证据。
审判定于6月3日在特拉华州威尔明顿开始，由法官Maryellen Noreika审理。
周一早些时候，亨特·拜登对诺雷卡驳回指控的动议提出上诉。联邦上诉法官小组已经拒绝了类似的努力。诺雷卡曾多次阻止拜登推迟审判的努力。
检察官表示，拜登在2018年获得一支柯尔特眼镜蛇38SPL左轮手枪时，在联邦表格上谎报了自己的吸毒情况，此前他在回忆录《美丽的事物》中承认自己在那段时间吸毒成瘾。他的律师说，他拥有枪支11天，但从未开枪。
去年9月，拜登被特别顾问维斯起诉。
Special counsel in Hunter Biden case plans to call his ex-wife, brother's widow as witnesses in upcoming trial
In court papers filed ahead of a June 3 trial, special counsel David Weiss’ office suggested they would call multiple women who had relationships with Hunter Biden to testifyin his felony gun case, including his ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, and the widow of his late brother Beau Biden, Hallie Biden.
The revelations emerged late Monday in a trial brief filed by the government. The 97-page document includes the law and evidence prosecutors plan to use to prove that Hunter Biden committed three felonieswhen he procured a firearm in 2018while under the influence of drugs.
Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty.
The filing does not name Buhle or Hallie Biden. But the descriptions make their identities clear.
“Witness 1 was previously married to the defendant,” prosecutors wrote in the filing. “They divorced in April 2017, but through 2018 she would check his vehicle from time to time because she did not want their children in a vehicle with drugs.”
Prosecutors described Witness 3 as a woman who "was in a romantic relationship with the defendant in October 2018, and before and after."
"Witness 3 will also establish that the defendant possessed the gun and she discarded it in an outdoor trash receptacle at the Janssen’s Market in Wilmington, Delaware after removing it from his vehicle," prosecutors wrote.
ABC News has previously reported that Hallie Biden found the Cobra 38SPL revolver and discarded it in a garbage bin.
A third unidentified woman prosecutors plan to call "was previously in a romantic relationship" with Biden and "observed the defendant using crack cocaine frequently—every 20 minutes except when he slept."
Prosecutors in Weiss’ office also indicated that they intend to draw heavily from passages in Hunter Biden’s 2021 memoir, "Beautiful Things," in which Biden addressed his addiction. They also plan to enter into evidence several messages that demonstrate his addiction at the time of his gun purchase, on Oct. 12, 2018.
The trial is scheduled to begin on June 3 in Wilmington, Delaware, before Judge Maryellen Noreika.
Earlier on Monday, Hunter Biden appealed Noreika’s denial of his motion to dismiss the charges. A panel of federal appellate judges has already turned down a similar effort. Noreika has repeatedly blocked Biden’s efforts to delay the trial.
Prosecutors say Biden lied on a federal form about his drug use when he obtained a Colt Cobra 38SPL revolver in 2018, after he later acknowledged in his memoir, "Beautiful Things," that he was addicted to drugs around that time. He owned the firearm for 11 days and never fired it, his attorneys have said.
Biden was indicted by special counsel Weiss last September.
