Defense attorney says gun dealer was willing to skirt protocol to sell gun to Hunter Biden
Lowell said that Gordon Cleveland, the gun dealer that the government plans to call as a witness, referred to himself as a "whale hunter" and wanted to make the firearm sale to Hunter Biden.
Lowell said Cleveland was willing to skirt protocol because Hunter Biden didn't have a driver's license but a passport without an address. Lowell says the jury will see that the ID box was not filled out by Biden, and, more importantly, that the boxes were already checked “no,” including the box in question about the purchaser’s potential substance abuse.
“A sale is a sale, and that was their goal that day,” said Lowell.
The box stating "Not an Addict" was prechecked 'No'?? That seems like a pretty big deal since that means Hunter did not check that box himself.
