If the drugs can't be destroyed before a case is over and it is used as evidence why was the cocaine in the case against pemberton and dale nibbs allegedly burnt before it was presented to the court ?

You would think it would be in a more secure vehicle with armed guards around it like other places. It is after all, valued at a lot of $$$. That pictures shows no accountability!
