Confusing and I suspect the AP is spinning this.
Was the data deleted and then recovered, or was is there all along.
Just watch the testimony video(40 Seconds) in post 15. Then compare to the story. The lies are obvious. Exactly how the data still resided on the drive in deleted form is irrelevant to proving the MSM stories are a lie. The guy never said what the MSM says he said. So why would anyone believe a word they say?
I am pretty sure that you won’t find the video on YouTube as they would most likely delete and suspend immediately.
