I am just catching up today and was reading about how the CSI guy mentioned he destroyed his notes, and apparently many were confused or thinking this was wrong. I don't know if this has been discussed down thread more, but I thought I'd chime in on this.
When Bloise says he destroyed notes a woman in gallery gasped. It wasn't very loud. Deputy gave her stern look. #CaseyAnthony -fell

In my LE training, we were trained that it was OKAY to destroy our "field notes" once we completed our official case report. We knew that we would have to testify that our official case report would have to represent a true and accurate "memorialization" of our field notes.
I hope that helps. That this CSI guy destroyed his field notes is not a bad thing or an error, etc. If that is how he and his office/agency handle that and they can testify to that (that destroying field notes is accepted in their policies/procedures) it should be okay.
If this was discussed later, or if LDB came afterwards and cleared that up for the jury, then just disregard this post, LOL. :fence:
