Question for Jaynormous or anyone else who got raided. Do they take your laptop/phone etc? Worried bout posting online (like here). Would they inspect them and stuff? Hopefully Jay pops in again with an answer
I havent had jay's experience but I would imagine if phone/laptop is on premises during raid, they would be taken as evidence. Seldom see a raid in press where computer kit isnt taken.
You can go down route of encrypting drives but if memory serves, not handing over the crypt keys is seen as impeding an investigation, off course if as a result of the raid you cant remember the keys, thts a different story.
But in fairness.....if you caught with a tent and a load of plants, drive contents wont have any affect on prosecution. It will be just more info on other sellers.
