On Tuesday, Hunter Biden sued former Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani for violations of computer fraud and data access to a laptop that Hunter Biden allegedly left at a Delaware repair shop.
Hunter Biden has been the target of attacks by Giuliani, Trump, and other conservative figures since 2020. In October of that year, Giuliani leaked information that he claimed to have received from Hunter Biden’s computer to The New York Post. The paper published a story based on the information, which suggested that President Joe Biden may have attended a meeting with a representative of the Ukrainian company for which Hunter worked.
Biden’s alleged involvement in his son’s business dealings is currently the basis of an impeachment inquiry into the president by House GOP committees.
Hunter Biden’s federal lawsuit also named Robert Costello, who previously represented Giuliani, as a defendant.
According to the suit, “For the past many months and even years, Defendants have dedicated an extraordinary amount of time and energy toward looking for, hacking into, tampering with, manipulating, copying, disseminating and generally obsessing over data that they were given that was taken or stolen from Plaintiff’s devices or storage platforms, including what Defendants claim to have obtained from Plaintiff’s alleged ‘laptop’ computer.”
Earlier this month, Hunter Biden was indicted in Delaware on several criminal charges related to his purchase and possession of a handgun while illegally using drugs. He was also charged in July with two counts of failure to pay federal income taxes in 2017 and 2018.
