What is a good response to? 1. Identify the differences between paper-based and digital evidence. Paper evidence and electronic evidence are so different that if investigators are mainly familiar with the use of paper evidence in crime investigations, they are likely to have difficulty incorporating electronic evidence into their crime analysis or brainstorming activities (Crumbley & Fenton, 2021). For example, handwritten signatures using an ink pen are only going to be found on paper documents. Paper evidence only displays the dates printed on the document. Finding dates on electronic documents differs significantly, as there are many dates; there are the dates on the document itself as well as the date when the document was created, accessed, or last modified (Crumbley & Fenton, 2021). 2. Do you believe that digital evidence can be destroyed? Yes, I believe digital evidence can be destroy Attempts to destroy digital evidence are very common (Gubanov, 2012). Such attempts can be more or less successful depending on the action taken, time available to destroy evidence, as well as the type of storage device (magnetic hard drive, flash memory card or SSD drive) (Gubanov, 2012). Important evidence often ends up in the recycle bin. This is especially true for Windows PCs. Literally, deleted files can often be successfully retrieved by analyzing the content of the Recycle Bin, a temporary storage they’re placed before being erased (Gubanov, 2012). 3. Can recreated files, pulled from other sources than the original laptop in this case, hold as evidence in a courtroom case? Yes, recreated files can be admitted as evidence in court, but there are strict requirements for authentication (Sozio, 2017). The proponent of the evidence must demonstrate that the recreated files are accurate and reliable representations of the original data (Sozio, 2017). This often involves showing the process used to recreate the files and ensuring that the integrity of the data was maintained. Courts will scrutinize the methods used to recreate the files to ensure they meet legal standards (Sozio, 2017).
