After reading the McCavitt case, pick ONE of the questions below and answer it in your discussion post. Then describe your overall reaction to the case and any key takeaways for you.

McCavitt$$s PC was examined twice. Why?

One of the articles mentions "shards of data left on $[$McCavitt$\text{'}$s$]$ mostly wiped hard drive". How do you interpret that?

One article describes the recovery of "partial remnants" of deleted files. How might police have done that?

How much can police determine about the origin of the files they recovered?

McCavitt's attorney admitted that the illicit files were on the hard drive, but argued that they were not placed there by McCavitt. How plausible is that argument?
