How many people a year do you think are convicted for lying about drug use on their Form 4473? Probably in the single digits, and Biden could be the only one this year. He is for sure the only one in Delaware.
But it is not all that serious a charge considering all the circumstances. The gun even had traces of cocaine on it. The prosecutor tried to sweep it under the rug, got caught and had to do something. SS even played along. And most druggies don’t make recordings and writings about and take pictures of their habit. And his having it must have put quite a fear in Hallie.
