Jonathan Turley Skewers the New Legal Strategy of Hunter Biden on Laptop
By Nick Arama | 10:00 PM on February 03, 2023

We’ve reported on the effort by Hunter Biden’s attorneys to get more aggressive, appealing to the Justice Department and the Delaware attorney general to go after people for “accessing, copying, manipulating, and/or disseminating” Hunter’s “private” computer data.

They’re also going after the media, with a letter threatening defamation action against Fox’s Tucker Carlson for a report he did on Hunter. The lawyers are appealing to the IRS to look at the non-profit status of Marco Polo, a group with a website that has some of the laptop data on it.

George Washington law professor Jonathan Turley ripped apart the claims, noting first that in the case of Carlson and defamation, the attorneys would face a high bar, given that Hunter is a “public figure.” They’d have to demonstrate “actual malice”–requiring that a false statement be made “with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not.”

Then he also noted that the laptop had allegedly been abandoned at the computer repair store. “Under standard terms of the agreement, an item left beyond a certain number of days at a business or rental housing becomes abandoned property. It can generally then be left on the curb, sold, or given away,” Turley claimed.

But on top of that, Hunter hasn’t made this claim in two years, as Turley notes, and said it could be Russian disinformation. As I previously noted, even Hunter’s father, Joe Biden claimed it could be Russian disinformation multiple times. Yet, suddenly, Turley notes, Hunter is now shocked that people would treat his “property” this way. It’s a bit too much to go for, at this point.

DefiantMassRINO:
Legally, a determination needs to be made about Hunter's laptop - was it "stolen", "abandoned", "surrendered", and "forfeited".

Hunter's team will use IRS and Campaign Finance Laws to challenge the 503c status of some of the conservative "foundations" and "institutes".

Lawyers schmoyers.  People can't unsee and unhear.  Get as much of the information on Hunter's laptop out to the public domain as soon as possible.

Hunter Biden was defacto selling access and influence using the Biden name.  Whether this rises to the level of a dejure crime is in question.
