However, the emails can be recovered if copies of the hard drives are immediately made, Lakhani said, adding that it would cost between $50 and $250 and take up to 30 minutes, far lower than the $15 million Payton projected.

“Leaps in forensic copying and imaging technology have rendered nominal the cost and burden of preserving media of the type envisioned by the court,” the NSA’s federal court filing says.

Payton, however, is increasingly coming under fire for the rationale she has come up with to explain the loss of the emails.

CREW filed a federal court motion earlier this month asking that Payton be held in civil contempt for knowingly submitting false, misleading and incomplete testimony in an earlier affidavit filed with a federal court on Jan. 15.


In that affidavit, Payton said she was unaware whether e-mails were properly archived.

CREW said Payton’s responses in her affidavit are “false and appear designed to mislead the court into believing that both discovery and any additional interim relief are unnecessary.”
