Houston, Texas – A man from Texas, Timothy Muller, was charged and arrested for threatening an FBI agent involved in the Hunter Biden investigation, according to a federal complaint filed Thursday. The complaint alleges that Muller sent threatening texts and a voicemail to the agent’s government-issued phone following a guilty verdict for President Biden’s son on federal gun charges in Delaware.
According to the federal document, Muller threatened to kidnap and kill the agent, accusing him of covering up child pornography on Hunter Biden’s laptop. Hunter Biden’s laptop became a contentious topic during the 2020 presidential campaign, with Republicans using it as evidence of wrongdoing by Hunter Biden, while Democrats dismissed it as possible disinformation spread by Russian operatives.
Hunter Biden has not faced any charges related to sex crimes, but in addition to the gun possession conviction, he also faces federal tax charges set for trial in September. The recent six-day trial revealed Hunter Biden’s struggles with substance abuse and failed relationships.
Federal investigators utilized messages obtained from the laptop’s hard drive to corroborate Hunter Biden’s battles with addiction. The federal complaint mentioned that the FBI agent threatened by Muller had been previously named in public reports.
Muller accused the agent of attempting to steal the election in favor of Biden, sparking further controversy. The complaint detailed Muller’s violation of laws related to interstate communication and influencing and retaliating against a federal official.
Overall, the case highlights the intense scrutiny surrounding the Hunter Biden investigation and the broader implications it has on political discourse and law enforcement.
