The U.S. government has charged Samuel Tunick with allegedly typing in a passcode to wipe his phone before officers could search it. “I hope people understand that the charges against me are meant to intimidate people,” he said.

Just another example of the Trump admin trying to intimidate protestors using whatever the fuck they can to bring up whatever charges they can.

Property is evidence.

Evidence of what? You cannot presume there was evidence unless you can prove there was evidence.

Evidence of destroying evidence. You know, like getting arrested for resisting arrest.
