| Aug 18, 2022 at 1:03 | comment | added | Alexander The 1st | @Barmar: On top of what Hobbamok said - removing the paper copies of the originals makes it harder for them to make copies without using the copies they made to make those copies. Knowing who has the original documents means you know who is liable for the other copies, if they are made. | |
| Aug 17, 2022 at 11:24 | comment | added | Hobbamok | @Barmar you are on a completely wrong train of thought. This investigation is not about could-have-happeneds in the past. It is about gathering evidence that a crime was committed, so that the central factor in real or potential breaches (the persons doing it) can be kept away from future material. The current material is more or less considered breached. But with this trial (based on this evidence) future breaches of future material could be prevented | |

| Aug 16, 2022 at 13:17 | comment | added | Barmar | How do we know that they didn't make copies? Keeping the originals doesn't preclude that. We know from past investigations that Trump and his people are incompetent, this is certainly the kind of mistake they might make. It might even be a decoy. | |
