(21,088 posts)58. It's also possible that he wrote a virus that was planted on Weiner's laptop.
That virus could have allowed the later placement of Hillary's emails, allowing them to be discovered by the NYC FBI field office following the seizure of the laptop as evidence in the sexting sting.

I drew readers attention to the arrest in Prague of the Russian hacker, Yvgeny Nikulin. He was indicted on charges of hacking Dropbox, Linked in and Formspring in 2012-2013.
Formspring is the little-known sexting app that Anthony Weiner used for his sexting the first time around.
My theory was that Nikulin, on instructions from the Russian state, woke or planted a laptop of Anthony Weiners via a virus which he placed on it through his prior hack of Formspring, and alerted Russias moles and agents of influence in the FBI field office in New York, who subsequently leaked to all and sundry that the emails had been found, and, by Rudy Giulianis own testimony, pressured James Comey into sending the letter he did.
However, the emails were nonetheless- found as part of an unrelated criminal investigation into Weiners sexting with a 15 year old girl. The story of these sexts broke Sep 21st in the Daily Mail with a byline from Alana Goodman.

This could be the guy who wrote the virus that Mensch speculated about. That virus would have played a major role in the election by allowing the uploading of the emails that Comey subsequently wrote his letter about.
My theory is that he was the person who wrote the virus that Nukulin later planted.
