>Jeff Fischbach, a forensic technologist for the defense, said there is no evidence that the child pornography was ever seen by anyone who used the computer, much less Gartenlaub.
>The government’s own forensic expert, Bruce W. Pixley, said he could not find any evidence of the material being downloaded onto any of the computers, the defense noted. That means it had to have been copied onto the computer — but by whom is unknown.
This guy was still convicted regardless, not to mention the fishy nature of the case.
I've always thought that so-called "Advanced Persistent Threats" or state-level actors—considering the ease and degree to which they can own most targets—are very likely capable of planting incriminating evidence with such precision so as to appear forensically sound in virtually every regard.
In reality though, it seems all that's required is removable media, rudimentary technical skills, and a dumb jury.
