Ex-FBI officials arrested in Hunter Biden laptop probe as testimony comes under scrutiny

The Department of Justice charged two former FBI officials with lying to Congress about their involvement in FBI investigations into Hunter Biden, including matters involving his laptop. Former FBI officials Nikki Cole Floris and Bradley Benavides surrendered Friday on arrest warrants after allegedly falsely denying their involvement in the investigations into former President Joe Biden's son when speaking to Congress.

Justice Department Evidence

The Justice Department claims to possess evidence that shows Benavides discussed the laptop story with others in the FBI, contradicting his testimony that he learned about the story from Wikipedia. Similarly, the department says that it has evidence Floris discussed Hunter Biden with members of the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force, despite testifying to the contrary.
