It's possible. Hunter could have been taken out years ago, his assets seized, all the evidence the White Hats had planted on his laptop, then plopped down in the repair shop to make it look like a crackhead Hunter forgot about it.
However, if that were the plan, it heavily relied on the repair shop owner having to look into the laptop or the repair shop owner is in on it. It's too much of a gamble that he'd crack open the laptop to find Hunter's crack.
Either way, I'd say the laptop wasn't always the main event.
Does anyone else think the laptops were planted?
Me.
