Apart from these claims, the lawsuit also slammed Giuliani and Costello for misusing Hunter’s credentials, specifically his username, to obtain access to data. But, that wasn’t all that the two have reportedly done, they’ve also created multiple copies of the information and forwarded it to their allies including the former White House Chief Strategist, Steve Bannon. In light of recent events, Costello has so far declined to issue any sort of comment concerning his involvement in the case.
However, Giuliani’s political advisor and spokesperson, Ted Goodman communicated his representative’s thoughts. “Hunter Biden has previously refused to admit ownership of the laptop,” claimed Goodman as he began the statement. “I’m not surprised he’s now falsely claiming his laptop hard drive was manipulated by Mayor Giuliani, considering the sordid material and potential evidence of crimes on that thing,” Goodman speculated.
In conclusion, there was an independent investigation organized to find out whether or not any of the data within Hunter’s gadget was manipulated or tampered with. Two cyber-investigators from Minneapolis-based Computer Forensics Services claimed that they found no such proof of any sort. The lawsuit against Giuliani and Costello comes amid Hunter’s father’s ongoing electoral campaign for the 2024 presidential elections.
