You still have some evidence of corruption there regardless. Potential evidence was destroyed.
At what point did it become potential evidence though? Even if you wanted to make this stretch, wouldn't you have to establish that she deleted these with the knowledge that they'd be wanted later?
If someone deleted a post on GameFAQs, and then a year later someone was doing a comically over-the-top background investigation of them. Would their deleting a post now retroactively become evidence of corruption? I mean, hell, maybe it was damning? Or maybe it was just someone posting in the wrong topic? There's no way to know now!
(assume for the purpose of this hypothetical we're back in the days where deleting a post kept the poster's name on the post)
If someone did it in a way that was not normal with the intent to make it unrecoverable, then yes.
You don't use a program like that unless you wish to make it unrecoverable. And that is not a normal way of going about things.
Trump pardoning Manafort immediately wouldn't be normal, either, yet you insisted that wasn't evidence of anything
