alt Hacker NewsRunning the administration's statement through my bullshit filter says they deleted the footage because it was too incriminating. I am also skeptical about the statement that it's irrelevant because they fixed the problem.

Nah. Nobody who's career goes anywhere in government is that dumb.
I'd bet a lot of money that once things got "bad for my job" level bad people turned off the recording without having to be told. This is SOP slimy government behavior. Everything from your local permitting office to the CIA.
So they're probably right, the footage never existed, but the reason is even more damning.
