Here is a lengthy interview of the owner of the Mac shop who turned Hunter Biden’s laptop and it’s contents over to the FBI in Dec 2019 and then to Rudy Giulani’s lawyer in Sept 2020 : thedailybeast.com/man-who-report…
Highlights: Someone who identified himself as Hunter brought in 3 laptops with water damage in April 2019. One was a total loss and the shop owner, who is legally blind, gave it back. A second one needed only a keyboard replacement, which was done and that laptop was given back
The third laptop was kept to download as many files as could be retrieved onto an external hard drive. He found “millions” of files on the desk top, and he manually dragged each from the damaged computer to a the external hard drive. The customer never came back to pick it up
... or pay the bill. Based on the contents of the files, including embarrassing photos ( but no child porn), the shop owner became concerned over his personal safety. During the impeachment hearings, through a friend he reached out to the FBI. Two agents from the Wilmington
... office or Baltimore showed up in Dec with a subpoena. In follow up calls the agents sought help in accessing the files. As for his fear for his safety, he said he was afraid of someone connected to the Biden’s might have motive to do him in. He must have raised this fear with
... the agents, as one told him people who don’t talk can expect to not be harmed. They told him if someone came back to pick up the laptop, stall for a day and text the agents, and they will bring back the original laptop and hard drive so the owner could give it to Hunter the
... next day. After nothing happened over the coming months, the shop owner continued to feel fearful about his safety, implicitly because he wasn’t certain what the FBI was up to, as he never heard from them. In September his acquaintance put him in touch with Giuliani’s lawyer.
He continued to refuse to answer all other questions about how and why he got in touch with Giuliani, except to say it was related to his fear for his personal safety. He also refused to say what emails he reviewed and how he found them. Bottom line is that his story does not
... support a theory that these files were either hacked or forged. It sounds authentic to me.
