    Exactly how do you know that the case is now "closed"? It sounds like you're just making an assumption. The state is too, but the cost of their assumption --- that there is valuable data to gather from the phone --- is very low, and the cost of your assumption, if you're wrong, is immense.

      Please do keep up with the context :) I didn't feel the need to elaborate because my parent thought one word was sufficient, but let me state the full context to my thought process: > > > Do we have reason to believe that there is evidence of any pending crimes or any old unsolved crimes on the phone? > > 14 dead people and a stack of unused guns and bombs. > two dead attackers, stack confiscated. case closed. If the "evidence" for future crimes is merely some dead criminals and the ammunition they didn't get to use, there is no probable cause for further investigation. Hence, the case should be closed.

        Nice. Next time I'll refrain from explaining myself.
