In the state of Western Australia, it is illegal to access, own or distribute digital content relating to clowns: Computer Forensic Report, KU, Singapore

In the state of Western Australia, it is illegal to access, own or distribute digital content relating to clowns. An allegation was been made to law enforcement whereby a witness claims to have seen an individual access down-related content within a place of work. Following the approval of formal warrants, the computer in question was seized from the workplace.

The computer was then forensically acquired using FTK Imager. Unfortunately, the junior investigator who obtained the ‘forensic image’ of the computer only performed a logical acquisition. To worsen the situation, the junior investigator forensically wiped the original hard drive from the computer. Fortunately, the logical acquisition was undertaken in a forensically sound manner.

The suspect, Clark denies accessing clown content. However; Clark does confirm that the computer does belong to him. Clark stated that he does not always take the computer home or lock it when he is away from his desk.
