KEY POINTS

The scandal around a laptop allegedly full of incriminating information on Hunter Biden faded following doubts that the information was accurate

The primary source, legally blind computer repairman John Paul Mac Isaac, has now left town after receiving death threats, and no charges have been levied against the Bidens

Some evidence now suggests the information had connections to Russia

The possible laptop belonging to Hunter Biden, which allegedly was full of incriminating files, was at the center of controversy from right-leaning media in October, weeks before the presidential election. At the center of the unsubstantiated reports was a computer repairman in Wilmington, Delaware, who gave the laptop to federal authorities.

So, whatever happened to that repairman?

John Paul Mac Isaac, owner of The Mac Shop in Wilmington, has seemingly skipped town in the wake of the scandal, the Delaware News Journal reports. His computer repair shop sits closed, and a neighbor told the News Journal that Mac Isaac had moved.

Mac Isaac’s attorney says he moved shortly after his story was published in the New York Post and that the repairman had received death threats.

The alleged incident began in April 2019, when an unidentified man walked into Mac Isaac’s computer repair shop with three water-damage laptops. He reportedly identified himself as Hunter Biden, though Mac Isaac could not be sure of the man’s identity since he is legally blind. The man dropped off one laptop to be repaired and returned only once after, never collecting the laptop or the data on it.
