A question of email

Yesterday, prosecutors suggested through testimony that email was destroyed after a search warrant was executed at Fumo and Citizen's Alliance - which, if true, means that email was destroyed after it was absolutely clear that the FBI wanted it. That's obstruction of justice.

Today, Sheppard clarified that, if this indeed happened, his firm had nothing to do with it.

Defense lawyer: Any suggestion that anyone at Sprague firm suggested that email be deleted?
FBI agent: No.
