Eric Meyer had said that computers, his cellphone, and the home’s internet router were taken during the raid. Herbel said her computer and phone were taken.

The router is the key to the case. That’s where you find the real crime. Idiots.

While they are idiots, this was about cruelty. They knew what they were doing.

We’re talking about cops. They had no idea what that thing was when they unplugged it and threw it on the pile in their MRAP.

some_guy ,

Well put.

TheWorldRolledMe ,

The router may have log files pertinent to the investigation. It may be basic information unless it was setup otherwise but it’s more information that can help lead to a conviction (hah) and possibly a slap on the wrists followed by a stern finger wagging.

Pretty sure the router doesn’t have persistent memory, so unplugging it wipes anything useful.

Or for that matter, enough on board storage to store more than a few hours of logs at best. Logs generate obscene amounts of text per second.

…one count of interference with the judicial process.

That’s IT?!?

Well yeah.

Just enough to convince the people that are convinced of his innocence that he’s being wrongfully punished, those who don’t bother looking into the punishment to say"yep he got punished", and it’s not like they have anything to worry about from the rest of the population who will only be upset over a light slap on the wrist but not do anything about it.

System working as intended.

unemployedclaquer ,

Wellllll… no. Optimistically. They certainly are trying to work out the statute of limitations on his various crimes versus what chargeable evidence blah blah blah

Meyer’s 98-year-old mother Joan Meyer, also a co-owner of the newspaper, lived with him and was home at the time of the raid. She collapsed and died the day after the raid, and Meyer blamed her death on the stress of the raid.

Maybe but at 98 she could have just died at any time

Xanis ,

You could too. I’d even bet had this happened to you that there would be a measurable increase in your risk of death.
