    The crazy part is the implication that the evidence destroyed was probably more damning than having a judge and jury assume anything reasonably suggested to have been implicated by those chats as true.

      I wager they’re so used to getting away with shit that destroying evidence probably says less about the crimes committed and more about the piss-poor justice system.

        *sigh* After reading some of the other comments, I have to agree. I’m not sure whether to be relieved or even more discouraged. It’s a dreadfully boring dystopia.
