The only problem there is that "destroying evidence" is increasingly difficult in the modern world where there are digital copies of almost everything of importance anyway.
Think of Hillary Clinton's illegal e-mail server. She could delete every file, "bleach" the server, and launch it into the sun on a space mission to ensure that everything was destroyed, but it still wouldn't do anything to deal with the problem that every e-mail has both a sender AND a recipient ... and passes through multiple mail servers between one and the other.

Your point is well taken . . . and yet as far as I know, the 33K e-mails that Hilary deleted have not been "recovered."
And is it outré to suggest that what Mueller's team is doing is finding as many of the recipients as they can so as to either destroy or confirm prior destruction of evidence?
