    Actually, that is how it works. And if you don’t believe us, then take 10 minutes and do a brief web search and you will find the same information… In this situation the law matches common sense which says that most of the time you are allowed to erase things on your own phone and when it is a special case then you need to know it’s a special case for it to be a crime.

  Thats not true at all. The most basic example would be flushing drugs down the toilet when the piggies knock on your door.

    Yeah pretty sure if they are at your door the investigation has started. But a cell phone randomly is seriously pushing the definition of investigation me thinks.
