An excerpt from an upcoming book obtained by DailyMail.com claims that the computer repairman who turned over Hunter Biden’s laptop to the FBI may have been threatened by one of the agents on the case

An FBI agent who was tasked with retrieving Hunter Biden‘s laptop from a repair shop in Delaware in 2019 allegedly threatened the store owner, according to an account from his upcoming book.

John Paul Mac Isaac wrote in an excerpt from his book, exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com, that two agents came to his laptop repair store to retrieve Hunter’s laptop following a subpoena, which came months after he tried to voluntarily hand over the device to the FBI.

He claimed that during the events on December 9, 2019 at his shop he tried to ‘defuse the award situation with humor’ and told the two agents ‘I’ll remember to change your names when I write the book.’

Now, Mac Isaac has actually written a book about the events, American Injustice: My Battle to Expose the Truth, and included the interaction with those agents two years ago.

‘Agent Wilson kept walking,’ Mac Isaac wrote, ‘but Agent DeMeo paused and turned to face me. ‘It is our experience that nothing ever happens to people that don’t talk about these things,’ he said, before turning back and walking out the door.’

The author claims he locked the door after they left and weighed whether that was a ‘direct threat’ or a ‘thinly veiled one.’

The ordeal came more than two months after Mac Isaac said he deployed his father to try and hand over a copy of the hard drive to the feds in New Mexico.

Hunter first came into The Mac Shop is Wilmington on April 12, 2019, according to Mac Isaac’s timeline of events, which he detailed to DailyMail.com. The president’s son was trying to recover data from damaged devices.

Three days after the initial interaction, Mac Isaac spoke with Hunter on the phone about dropping off a related drive to the recovery efforts, which he did the next day.

April 16, 2019 was the last time Mac Isaac ever heard from or saw Hunter.

When he called him to let him know the job was done and ready for pick up, Hunter never came, Mac Isaac claims.

That same month, Biden announced his candidacy for president.

John Paul Mac Isaac (pictured) is the laptop repairman who turned over Hunter Biden’s laptop to the FBI after the president’s son came into his shop in 2019. He claims in his upcoming book that one FBI agent said to him: ‘It is our experience that nothing ever happens to people that don’t talk about these things’

Shortly after, Mac Isaac said he started speaking to his father about concerns related to the laptop – particularly messages he saw related to Ukraine as a story emerged involving President Donald Trump and collusion in the 2016 campaign.

Ultimately, on October 9, 2019 Mac Isaac’s father took a copy of the hard drive that his son gave him to try and hand it over to the FBI in New Mexico.

But, Mac Isaac told DailyMail.com, the field office would not take the device, claiming it was not a federal issue.

He claims less than one month later on November 1, the FBI reached out to his father and on December 9, 2019 two agents came to Mac Isaac’s store and retrieved Hunter’s backup hard drive along with the laptop and other related paperwork.

Mac Isaac wrote in his book, set for release November 22, 2022, that he asked the agents what he should say if someone came looking for the laptop.

‘Tell them you keep abandoned equipment offsite, like a warehouse location,’ one agent told him, according to a book retelling.

Hunter’s laptop, which came into Mac Isaac’s possession in April 2019, included a slew of compromising and X-rated content – including nude, pornographic and drug-related images and videos of the president’s adult son

‘Tell them it will take a day for you to check and they should call back the next day,’ he claims the agent added. ‘Then immediately text me at my cell number. From now on, only communicate through my cell number. Not Agent Wilson, just me. We need to avoid communicating through, ah, normal channels. I’m sure you can understand. Text me and we will get the equipment back to you and deal with the situation.’

Mac Isaac noted: ‘I felt like I had given away my only good cards and been left with garbage. But it was too late to reconsider; it was done.’

The author and former laptop repairman says in his book that he was relieved to be rid of the materials, but felt that it was a rush job with no real care for the gravity of the matter.

This was further proved, he claims, when he was watching the impeachment trial against Trump start in January 2020 and heard no mention of Hunter’s laptop.
