I agree - it seems unlikely that incriminating recordings or other records were not found. But perhaps he was as careful to avoid storing anything incriminating, as he was at avoiding any hint of blackmail that would have killed off access to new powerful people, in all his social engineering. He was evil, but he was very smart. He seems to have preferred using carrots, good and evil, to expand his influence. Not sticks.
