> The Todds agree that Shane’s hard drive may be a critical piece of evidence in how he died and could shed fresh light on the vulnerabilities of technology safeguards. But they question how the Singapore police have so far investigated Shane’s death, so they won’t hand over the drive. They are offering, instead, to send a copy of the contents of the drive.
Good. This is pretty much the only sane way to handle digital evidence, anyway.
- maeon3 14y agoIt's possible the hitmen could have cloned the drive, bought a replica, mirrored the contents and deleted any incriminating evidence, the parents are probably not advanced enough to know the difference between a file and a browser. I'd look for evidence that the hard drive shows evidence of usage by the victim here.
- aeze 14y agoUntil you realize they're sending a logical copy with no hash of the original.
- njloof 14y agoShane had no place taking home a copy of his work computer. Didn't deserve what happened, but that was just foolish... unless he was an informant.
