New ( documentation) released by the House Oversight Committee this week again raises questions on how Lois Lerner’s hard drive was physically damaged and whether there was some kind of deliberate act to destroy data on it.
The House Oversight Committee report cites an officially transcribed interview with John Minsek, senior investigative analyst with the IRS Criminal Investigations (CI) unit. Minsek examined the Lerner hard drive in 2011. In the transcribed interview, he notes Lerner's hard drive contained “well-defined scoring creating a concentric circle in the proximity of the center of the disk.” The Oversight Committee report states:
"Using the CI unit's digital forensic facilities, Minsek opened the hard drive and conducted additional tests. Once he opened the hard drive, Minsek noticed “well-defined scoring creating a concentric circle in the proximity of the center of the disk.”
So how did the scoring get there?

The only thing our politicians learned from Watergate was to do a more thorough job of covering-up.
According to the IRS, Lerner's laptop computer crashed in June 2011, causing the data on her hard drive to be deemed "unrecoverable" by computer professionals. The investigation by TIGTA concluded Lerner's hard drive most likely crashed on June 11, 2011, a Saturday.Efforts to determine who had access to Lerner's office at the time were unsuccessful as the security badge entry and exit logs from that timeframe were also destroyed.
Stop wasting time with hearings and start impeachment against Koskinen.
Just A Coincidence.
BS
It is possible to recover data from a scratched disk.
It is expensive and time consuming, but considering the importance of this issue and the importance of Lois Lerner’s position as head of the IRS, it would be worth it.
In this case, a scratched disk is not necessarily a lost disk.
If you or I used such a lame excuse to withhold required information from the IRS we would already be in an orange jumpsuit. I have to hand it to Obama, his administration is the most transparent administration in history - transparently corrupt to the bone.
I seem to remember that one of the main charges against Nixon was Obstruction of Justice.
If the Left thought he deserved impeachment and imprisonment for a 18 minute gap in a tape.
How many years for Lois Lerner and Hillary for the same charges?
It was smashed with a hammer.
“It is possible to recover data from a scratched disk.”
It has since been destroyed. Just little bits left in a garbage dump.
IMHO the only thing that will get the information log jam broken is the actual conviction of one of the Obama suck-ups and a ride to Levenworth for the perp. The hope that Obama will pardon them will not remain strong.
Sort of like Jimmy Hoffa.
No, the big difference is that in the Watergate case you had a Media that was taking an active hand in foisting this coup, whereas in the case when a Democrat leftist is in office you have the Media actively participating in the cover-up themselves.
Scoring, what is this scoring thing?
Liberal bureaucrats can get away with anything as long as your Marxist goons control the Justice Department.
