Then no one could prove nothing was planted, either.

Cause that would involve proving a negative which is very, very difficult.

Bit of a double-edge sword.

Both sides of the argument would be on equal grounds, rhetorically.

From there, you just have to go to 'which side is more likely to be full of shit?'

And for anyone who's not knuckle-dragging Cult45 will conclude ... TFG is far more likely to be the liar.

Also I'm sure there's body cam footage of EVERYTHING being collected.
