Judge Orders Cyber Ninjas To Preserve Records Of Its Fake Elections 'Audit'

[ffr]

An Arizona judge on Wednesday ordered Cyber Ninjas, the company Arizona Republicans hired to run a shoddy review of the 2020 elections, to preserve documents of its audit for public release.

Maricopa County Superior Court Judge John Hannah’s decision marks the first time Cyber Ninjas has been ordered directly to keep its records amid multiple lawsuits seeking transparency in the politicized and largely secretive operation.

The judge’s order is part of the Arizona Republic’s lawsuit against Cyber Ninjas and the GOP-controlled Arizona Senate for documents about the audit.

“All defendants, including Cyber Ninjas, are ordered to carefully secure, protect and preserve from deterioration, mutilation, loss or destruction any and all records in their custody, possession or control that are reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain an accurate knowledge of their official activities concerning the 2020 Maricopa County election audit, including records of the performance, funding and staffing of said audit,” Hannah wrote in his order. - TPM

1. Wanna bet they've been destroying evidence all along?

[gratuitous]

5. The penalties for destroying evidence are far less than the penalty for the crimes they've committed

That's what Jose Rodriguez found when he destroyed the tapes of the torture sessions he and his pals carried out in Iraq. In fact, in the years since, the CIA has endorsed Rodriguez's actions in destroying the evidence of their crimes against humanity. I'm confident the Cyber Ninjas have taken the lesson to heart.

6. Was there anything to even destroy?

Records of what?

The hallucinogens they took to come up with all this fiction?

What a joke.

How many laws did their fake audit break ???

Who stopped them ???
