I thought I heard this morning that is was her laptop that crashed.
She had to have gotten a new one right away. When was it bought?
I think someone also added it was an HP (or compaq).
IT never bothered to recover any of the data, and accidentally sent all the hard memory to be recycled.
Sounds plausible, yes?
Why is everyone chasing this red herring? Emails aren’t stored on a PC. They are serviced and stored within servers that are thereby backed up commensurate with storage and retention policies. The media is then taken from server to disk or tape and stored off-site. So the Government who has enacted unbelievable regulations across the financial services industry for media retention laws would have us believe emails vanished? What would happen to a bank that says this? I can tell you for Enron what happened.....pokey time. We are getting lost in the minutia of a red herring
Would she have been stupid enough to plot and plan on government computers and email accounts. Maybe these are red herrings.
What personal email accounts were there of all involved and where are those records.
Also, it’s impossible to believe that aren’t back ups somewhere.
Subpeona the IT dept and any outside contractors who worked on equipment. Even if the hard drive crashed, there was data on those hard drives which was retrievable.
Time for jail.
