Somewhere, there is a huge repository of hard drives, extracted from the confiscated computers of certain “protected” individuals, deep in some vault inside the FBI (Federal Bureau of Matters), watched over and guarded by some long-time denizens of the Deep State.
Should this vault ever be opened, there is so much that would be incriminating to other parts of the Deep State, it would be badly wounded.
The fictions must be maintained.

In 2007, Virginia Tech shooter Cho Seung Hui removed the hard drive of his computer and disposed of his cell phone shortly before the massacre. Authorities even searched a pond for the missing digital media, but the devices were never recovered.
The 2008 Northern Illinois shooter, Steven Kazmierczak, removed the SIM card from his phone and the hard drive from his laptop, and neither was recovered.
In 2012, Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza had removed the hard drive from his computer and smashed it with a hammer or screwdriver.
Interesting—missing hard drives from all these guys who “just snapped.” Makes me think about the Navy Yard shooting in 2013, where 12 people were killed. The shooter had complained about hearing voices, but otherwise had recently been employed as a contractor by the Navy.
Someone close to me subsequently worked at the Navy Yard as a contract specialist, and one of the long-time employees told her that the shooter seemed to be picking his targets rather than just indiscriminately shooting everyone in sight. That incident still smells to high heaven to me. Conspiracies that would have seemed unbelievable to me a few years ago pale in comparison to what is really happening now.
