In civil litigation, the moment a lawsuit is filed, the defendant must preserve any documents that could reasonably relate to the subjects at issue in the litigation. If, instead, he destroys those documents, he is guilty of spoliation, and spoliation is a big deal. It’s the kind of thing that can see an automatic judgment taken against the defendant because the court will assume that the documents, if they’d been admitted into evidence, would have proven the defendant’s guilt.

Every single member of the J6 “Committee..” serving in Congress or not, should be in jail without bail.

If there is corruption, then the answer is affirmative.

If one party to a lawsuit destroys evidence, the other party is entitled to assume that the destroyed evidence was most favorable to themselves.

The "best evidence" rule should be used to throw out the J6 interpretations of the transcripts, since they are the ones who purposely destroyed the original "best evidence" to prevent President Trump from using it in his defense.
