Attorneys for Hunter Biden are calling on federal and
state prosecutors to pursue criminal investigations into actors involved
in disseminating personal data from their client's abandoned laptop.
The approach, now more than two years after the New York Post’s
original reporting, is being described as “the boldest and most
aggressive move to date from Biden” on the issue.
In
the letters related to his personal data, Biden’s lawyers are asking
state and federal law enforcement agencies to investigate individuals
who came into possession of the data, some of which could have come from
a laptop he purportedly dropped off in Delaware in April 2019. They
claim that about a half-dozen people have violated various statutes,
including by making public restricted private information; accessing and
disseminating stolen property; and making false statements to Congress.
“The
actions described above more than merit a full investigation and,
depending on the resulting facts, may merit prosecution under various
statutes,” the letters read. “It is not a common thing for a private
person and his counsel to seek someone else being investigated, but the
actions and motives here require it.”
The letters are particularly
focused on John Paul Mac Isaac, the computer repair shop owner who has
claimed he first received the material from Biden in April 2019. Mac
Isaac has written a book and spoken at political events, and Biden’s
lawyers point to inconsistencies in his account.
The
letters also request investigations into former New York mayor Rudy
Giuliani, who was given the material from Mac Isaac and later
distributed it; Robert Costello, who is Giuliani’s lawyer and also
received the material; and Stephen K. Bannon, who has also had the
material and helped facilitate initial news stories about it.

Biden’s attorneys also name Jack Maxey, who provided the material to
several news outlets, including The Washington Post, as well as Ziegler,
who has uploaded data onto his website, and Yaacov Apelbaum, a former
aide to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) who Mac Isaac has said helped create a
“forensic image” of the hard drive. (The Washington Post)

By pursuing legal action, Biden's attorneys are not only publicly
confirming the authenticity of the data, they're also blowing apart the
Russian disinformation narrative peddled by the left, including
President Biden himself, over the years.
So
that settles it then - not a conspiracy or Russian disinfo. The laptop
is and always was real & they are trying to keep it out of court.
This is called panic mode.

Hunter
Biden authorized John Paul Mac Isaac to access his laptop data. Then he
failed to retrieve the laptop. At that point it became abandoned
property. & free game. https://t.co/MvrSOpf7Tw
