Re: Trump allows ICE to delete records of death and sexual assault
I can answer this.
For certain government records, they must be retained, by law, for x (depends on what it is) years. Usually this deals with sensitive, financial, and classified information. Retaining any longer than that is not required.
Failing to purge the records, both paper and digital, can get costly and unwieldy so as long as the records are not of import, they can and should be sanitized.
In other words, this is another bullshit anti-Trump character assassination attempt. Most regular Americans are not going to be familiar with Federal data retention and media sanitization policies so this works really well as the appeal to emotions logical fallacy. "OMG!!! HE'S DELETING BAD GUYS' DATA!!!"
