Hunter Biden served defamation lawsuit by computer repair shop owner days before his lawyer called for criminal probes
Hunter Biden was served with a defamation lawsuit by John Paul Mac Isaac last week, five days before the disgraced first son sought his own legal action against the former computer repair shop owner who came into possession of the infamous “laptop from hell.”
A private investigator hired by Mac Isaac tracked down Hunter in Culver City, Calif. on Jan. 27 to serve him with the lawsuit, which seeks damages of $1.5 million from the president’s son.
“It was very difficult to find where he was,” Mac Isaac’s lawyer Brian Della Rocca told Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Thursday about attempts to smoke out Hunter Biden.
“You know, he was in DC for a couple of weeks and he was moving around. Well, we finally tracked him down and we were able to serve him last week. And now all of a sudden, we see this,” Della Rocca added, referencing letters sent out by Hunter Biden’s lawyer on Wednesday pleading for a criminal probe into Mac Isaac and others who disseminated the contents of the infamous laptop.
Mac Isaac and his lawyer allege that Hunter instructed his lawyer, Abbe Lowell, to seek a criminal investigation as payback.
“He’s trying to intimidate. And it’s interesting to me that this happened when it did,” Della Rocca told Carlson.
Mac Isaac’s lawsuit alleges that Hunter left the store owner to twist in the wind for years while variously and falsely insisting that the laptop was not his, that it had been stolen or that his information had been hacked.
Della Rocca insists that Mac Isaac became the legal owner of the laptop after Hunter Biden dropped it off to be repaired in April 2019 — but failed to return to reclaim it despite attempts by Mac Isaac to contact him.
“There could be a laptop out there that was stolen from me,” Hunter Biden told CBS News in April 2021. “It could be that I was hacked. It could be that it was then — that it was Russian intelligence. It could be that it was stolen from me.”
“As a direct and proximate result of the defamatory statements by HUNTER, [Mac Isaac] has suffered, and continues to suffer, substantial damages, including the loss of his business,” the suit reads. “HUNTER had actual knowledge of the falsity of the claims and understood the high probability that injury or damage would result to [Mac Isaac] and, despite such knowledge, made the false and defamatory statement and has issued no apology to [Mac Isaac] such as would repair that damage.”
Lowell accused Mac Isaac, who owned The Mac Shop in Wilmington, Del., of “unlawfully” accessing the now-52-year-old’s personal data — a de facto admission that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden, after years of denials and hedging.
Lowell’s targets for prosecution include Mac Isaac, former President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, and Giuliani’s personal lawyer Robert Costello, all of whom Lowell accuses of attempting to “weaponize” sordid and incriminating contents on the laptop against Joe Biden.
“This failed dirty political trick directly resulted in the exposure, exploitation, and manipulation of Mr. Biden’s private and personal information,” Lowell wrote. “Mr. Mac Isaac’s intentional, reckless, and unlawful conduct allowed for hundreds of gigabytes of Mr. Biden’s personal data, without any discretion, to be circulated around the Internet.”
Mac Isaac initially filed the lawsuit in May last year against Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), CNN, the Daily Beast and Politico.
Hunter Biden was added to the suit in October, and the Daily Beast was dropped from the action after the news outlet apologized for wrongly referring to the laptop as “stolen.”

CRISPR has revolutionized health over the past decade. I’m excited to see how it will continue to evolve and intersect with other technologies in the decade to come.

CRISPR technology: A decade of genome editing is only the beginning
A decade of CRISPR
In the decade since the publication of CRISPR-Cas9 as a genome-editing technology, the CRISPR toolbox and its applications have profoundly changed basic and applied biological research. Wang and Doudna now review the origins and utility of CRISPR-based genome editing, the successes and current limitations of the technology, and where innovation and engineering are needed. The authors describe important advances in the development of CRISPR genome-editing technology and make predictions about where the field is headed. They also highlight specific examples in medicine and agriculture that show how CRISPR is already affecting society, with exciting opportunities for the future. —DJ

Shelter-in-place ordered after Hazmat spill on Interstate 10 in Arizona
Arizona DPS reports that the crash involved an 18-wheeler that rolled over and leaked hazardous material.
A shelter-in-place order and some evacuations have been called for on Tuesday after a crash and Hazmat spill on Interstate 10 in Tucson, Arizona.
ADOT reports that the interstate is closed and it is not known when it will reopen.
According to a local outlet, residents in a one-mile radius of the area near the crash were being warned to evacuate or take shelter immediately.
The residents were asked to turn off machines that bring in any outside air, including air conditioners and heaters.
Arizona DPS reports that the crash involved an 18-wheeler that rolled over and leaked hazardous material, in this case liquid nitric acid.
"The Department's Hazardous Materials Response Unit, along with partner agencies are working together to mitigate the incident," DPS said in an email, according to 13 News. "Out of an abundance of caution first responders are working to evacuate a perimeter around the area of the incident."

Truck driver killed in crash that caused hazmat situation on Interstate 10 between Kolb, Houghton
Shelter-in-place lifted but evacuations will remain for foreseeable future
A shelter-in-place and evacuations were ordered following a crash and hazmat spill on Interstate 10 between Kolb and Houghton roads in Tucson on Tuesday, Feb. 14.
Arizona DPS confirmed a truck carrying liquid nitric acid crashed in the median and rolled over. DPS also confirmed that the truck driver died.
As of 8 p.m. Tuesday, Interstate 10 was closed in both directions in the area and there is no timetable for it to reopen. Also, portions of both Houghton and Rita roads are closed near I-10.
“This will be an extensive closure,” Arizona DPS said in a tweet. “Motorists in the Tucson area should anticipate an impact on their Wednesday morning commute.”
DPS said the shelter-in-place order was lifted at 8:40 p.m., but homes and businesses that were evacuated will remain evacuated for the foreseeable future.
Earlier, DPS said anyone within a half-mile of the crash site was ordered to evacuate.
According to the National Library of Medicine, nitric acid is “very toxic by inhalation” and “corrosive to metals or tissue.”
“Prolonged exposure to low concentrations or short-term exposure to high concentrations may result in adverse health effects,” the NLM said on its webpage.
The main uses of the chemical are the production of fertilizers, explosives, and rocket fuel.
The Vail Governing Board said during a meeting that it would make a decision on Wednesday classes in the morning. 13 News will update this story and send out an alert when a decision is announced.
This bread retells your history
You were brought to the threshing floor of the Lord and were threshed
While awaiting catechism, you were like grain kept in the granary
At the baptismal font you were kneaded into a single dough. In the oven of the Holy Ghost you were baked into God's true bread.
Möngke Khan, the fourth Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, had a drinking fountain made in his capital of Karakorum, including kumis alongside Chinese rice wine, Scandinavian mead, and Persian grape wine as a symbol of the empire's diversity and size.
