Im pretty sure the computer shop guy would have recalled if it was a Chinese person who dropped it off. He left many messages with a Hunter. The Hunters lawyer never claimed they were stolen.
I think it was Hunter who dropped them off. He spilled something on it.
I still dont see where one version is conflicting with another. Can you explain where this takes places?
The computer guy “Mac” also said that Hunter was kinda incredulous he didn’t recognize him or know who he was.
See Stephen W.’s post; the computer shop guy got a load of “don’t you know who I am” from Hunter.
So, it was probably Hunter that dropped off the laptop.
