I'm also thinking it would have been more proper, for forensic purposes, to create an exact clone as opposed to compressed files.
I agree Meebee and it may be the ONLY legal way to even begin analysis of whatever it is the DT team is claiming.
Any deviation in format at all , whether it be compressed or zipped files or anything such as that is not a true copy in the legal sense. So I think from a legal perspective an exact clone is the only thing the State would accept before even looking at it much further.
On top of that, I think that if they ever get that, the first thing the State will do is compare their original clone copy to the copy the DT gave them and once they see any differences, then they will probably claim that the DT caused those actions by whatever they did. Not Travis.
Like if the Virus payload had not been unleased but was still on Travis hard drive it still means he never accessed *advertiser censored* sites at all. It is only when the Virus payload was unleashed by the DT.
The state will have a valid response to just offer them another original clone and let the DT have it.
I think in the long run this will go nowhere. But what concerns me is what the judge will do before she realizes the DT is up to their old games.
All JMO of course.
