At one point Hunter’s wife Melissa flipped out on a former Trump aide who was at the courthouse observing the trial.
Melissa Cohen screamed at former Trump aide Garrett Ziegler in the hallway during a morning break at the courthouse.
Recall that Hunter Biden sued Garrett Ziegler last year for accessing his ‘laptop from hell.’
The lawsuit accuses Ziegler of violating California and federal computer privacy laws after he posted content from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop to the website of his nonprofit, Marco Polo.
Hunter Biden claimed in his lawsuit that the “data appears to have been manipulated both before and after Ziegler obtained it,” according to Politico.
Ziegler laughed at the allegations in a statement to far-left Politico.
“I nor the nonprofit, Marco Polo, have been served with any lawsuit — but the one I read this morning out of the Central District of California should embarrass Winston & Strawn LLP,” Ziegler wrote in an email to Politico. “It’s not worth the paper it’s written on. Apart from the numerous state and federal laws and regulations which protect authors like me and the publishing that Marco Polo does, it’s not lost on us that Joe’s son filed this SLAPP one day after an Impeachment inquiry into his father was announced.”
Melissa Cohen called Ziegler a ‘Nazi piece of sh*t!’ then walked away.
Ziegler did not respond.
NBC News reported:
There was a dramatic scene in the hallway during the brief morning break, when Hunter Biden’s wife, Melissa Cohen-Biden, approached former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler as he was about to walk to the courtroom. Hunter Biden sued Ziegler over an online database of emails attributed to the president’s son.
She got close to him and said in a loud emotional voice and gestured toward him, pointing her finger at him: “You have no right to be here, you Nazi piece of s—” and then walked away.
Ziegler did not respond. He entered the courtroom and confirmed what was said, telling NBC News, “That’s what I heard.” When asked for comment, he said, “It’s sad I’ve been sitting here the whole time and haven’t approached anyone.”
When asked if he had any response to the incident, Ziegler told NBC News: “For the record, I’m not a Nazi, I’m a believer in the U.S. Constitution. I haven’t said one thing to them.”
When asked why he was attending the trial, Ziegler said, “It’s prudent for me to be here.” When asked for comment on the ongoing civil litigation he is involved in with Hunter Biden and Kevin Morris, Ziegler told NBC News that the suits are “completely frivolous and Hunter should focus on paying his attorneys.”
