Degaussing 3 times is not evidence of knowingly deleting evidence. I find that laughable.

It's clearly evidence of knowingly deleting data. It may not be evidence of knowingly deleting evidence. The distinction matters, because deleting data is not a crime.

Degaussing 3 times. Who does that when deleting data? Unless they don't want investigators to find the data? And isn't the data in this case a public record? Why delete a public record indelibly unless they had manipulated that record and wanted to hide the fact..?

The same kind of people who think they need 35 passes to wipe their hard drive.
