@evacide@hachyderm.io @tehfishman@ioc.exchange the guy was under duress in a situation where he was not entitled to legal representation so the opinion of lawyers is somewhat less significant

@smn@l3ib.org @evacide@hachyderm.io I'm hardly a legal expert, but I think it's fair to say that many things can be true at once, and they all contribute to various layers of a fucked up situation 1) if someone is planning to destroy potential evidence when faced with a search, that's planning to commit a crime regardless of circumstances and the legal system really doesn't care about your situation 2) warrantless searches are appalling 3) warrantless searches happen anyway, the legal system permits them, and pretending they don't is failure to plan ahead 4) regular people are not prepared for them because who the fuck has time to deal with that 5) goto 1 I really really doubt that deleting evidence would fly in court. It doesn't matter how fucked the circumstances are, that is still considered a crime Also, who the fuck you think operates in a court of law? Might it be lawyers?
