Today, Hunter admits: “I think people were confused by it. And I understand that. I mean, I really do. To me, it’s not something that is difficult to explain. Because it came out of a real overwhelming grief that we both shared. And we were together, and trying to do the right thing,” he said during an interview with CBS Sunday Morning.

Hallie was with Hunter long enough to get entangled in an incident over Hunter’s gun. He says Hallie had thrown it away to try and make sure he didn’t do anything to hurt himself. “I told her, ‘You can’t do that’ when I realized that it was gone. And so she went back and they — the police came to help retrieve the gun, which was retrieved,” Hunter says in a separate interview which ran on CBS This Morning. “Someone had gone through the trash and picked it up and they found it, within hours I believe. And so that was the end of the story.”
