The testimony debunks longstanding claims by Hunter’s associates that the laptop’s data was subject to “hacking” and “manipulation.”
Hunter’s forensics expert, named Denver Riggleman, claimed during a CNN appearance in 2023 that data in the “public sphere” from the “Laptop from Hell” had “no relation” to the laptop. In other words, the president’s son’s defense team seemed to suggest that the laptop — or at least part of it — was not authentic.
“No,” Jensen replied when the prosecution asked on redirect if she had seen any evidence of tampering with the laptop data, according to court reporters.
The data obtained from Hunter’s iCloud account came from Apple via a search warrant.
