But in a trove of text messages obtained by prosecutors, Hunter admitted to unsuccessfully trying to maintain sobriety over a period of about four years, including buying and using drugs and purchasing guns.
Buhle told Hunter in a March 9, 2018 message that she “discovered several cracked pipes” in the family’s car and removed them because “her daughter was driving” at the time.

“That damn FBI Harry. I can’t believe someone is that stupid,” Hunter raged in one message after meeting with police who recovered his gun in October 2018. You say I invade your privacy. What could I do better than to come back to you and try again? And do you do this?
“Who in their right mind would believe you would help me sober up?” he fumed.
Photos from Hunter’s cell phone and other location data contained in messages to Harry corroborate his crack abuse.
“Rodney and I were sleeping between cars in a smoking area on 4th Avenue,” he wrote in a text message to Harry on October 14, 2018.
A month after the shooting, Hunter also confessed to Harry: It ruined every relationship I ever cherished. ”
