@Lash,
I had this discussion on Slashdot yesterday.
Files dumped on Wikileaks will
never be used as evidence in a criminal proceeding. E-mails are, in essence, a text file. Text files are easily forged. Unless there is some way to determine that Hillary Clinton authored the E-mail, which would require something like the E-mail being signed with a private encryption key, no prosecutor is going to touch it.
Creating a digital copy of a hard drive that is actually admissible is not a trivial task. Last I knew, you have to keep the hard drive in its original state, and you have to be able to demonstrate that any copies are accurate.
Prosecution says, "I'd like to enter electronic documents as evidence."
Defense asks, "where'd you get these?"
Prosecution says, "Wikileaks."
Defense says, "motion to suppress."
Judge rules, "granted."
