A Terroristic Divorce

Initial Report:
Computer Surveillance program needs to be detected, removed and prevented in the future.

Detective Ray Kuter:
I took the computer to his office in Norristown, where he was unable to accomplish any sort of investigation.

Actions:
Det. Kuter tries for an hour to get a monitor and keyboard to work with computer.  As the computer has begun a self destruct sequence, he bails on any investigation until the machine is stabilized.   He would later after ignoring telephone calls for months and months make an offer to purge the hard disk of any data and thus delete any evidence of the intrusion.  What kind of investigator suggests the deletion of the evidence which prove the crime as a way of investigating the crime?
