Actually I believe this is false. This would fall under obstruction of justice. There have been similar cases such as Arthur Andersen LLP v. United States where they destroyed evidence in a similar fashion - however the jury instruction were proven to be incomplete in that the conviction was over turned because they couldn't trace the link of conscious wrongdoing by the company since there was nothing explicitly known to be acting in conscious wrongdoing.
"In the court's view, the instructions allowed the jury to convict Andersen without proving that the firm knew it had broken the law or that there had been a link to any official proceeding that prohibited the destruction of documents. "
HOWEVER! We see here that they are already asserting they had knowledge of wrong doing since they deleted the logs prior, day of, and after election day, the logs were present before and would be required of an audit, that the certification and basically every aspect of this plan had to have been a conscious effort to hide, elude, destroy evidence.
This is 100% not a way to circumvent the law. In fact, I think we'd have rioting in the street if they walked away with nothing. We'd resort to street justice which may even be more preferable to some. They goin down homie.
