Hunter Biden’s Lawyers Call for Criminal Investigation into Right-Wing Figures for Alleged “Weaponization” of Laptop Contents

Attorneys for Hunter Biden have called for a criminal investigation into a number of right-wing political figures, including Rudy Giuliani, for allegedly “weaponizing” the contents of a laptop that was left at a Delaware computer repair shop in 2019.

In letters sent to the Delaware attorney general, the Justice Department’s National Security Division and the IRS, Hunter Biden’s lawyer has asked the Justice Department to investigate close allies of former President Donald Trump and others who he says accessed and disseminated personal data from the laptop. This marks the first time that President Joe Biden’s son and his legal team have publicly acknowledged that it was his personal data purported to be found on the laptop.

The letters allege that the individuals involved committed computer and other criminal violations in their effort to use the laptop contents against Hunter Biden’s father, President Joe Biden. The letters come after Hunter Biden hired new lawyers to help him with the case.

The Delaware attorney general’s office has confirmed that it received the letter and is reviewing it. The Justice Department and IRS have not yet commented on the matter. It is unclear if any criminal charges will be brought against the individuals involved.

The case has become a major political issue, with many Republicans alleging that the laptop contains evidence of wrongdoing by the Biden family. However, Hunter Biden and his legal team have denied any wrongdoing and have accused the individuals involved of attempting to use the laptop contents for political gain.
