Treat the destruction of evidence as proof of guilt and assume the worst case scenario. Ya know, the thing we do with criminals.

We don’t turn destruction of evidence as proof of guilt with criminals, it’s just a separate crime.

Legally we don't, but generally, as people... I think most of us look at destruction of evidence as at least evidence of guilt.

Since when is that proof of guilt? I can see it being it's own specific crime, but it proves nothing.
