I've noticed some CTists seem to have a mindset where they're entitled to see, read and touch everything related to a case, and if they don't it's a cover-up and/or conspiracy, even if what they demand is restricted to family members or even privately owned.
A few 9/11 truthers demand that either the airlines release the passenger manifests of the involved flights, or else they never existed and it's a hufe conspiracy. The Obama birthers, even though a birth certificate was shown, seems to think there's some other more detailed birth record that themselves are entitled to have produced to placate their belief that unless it's released, the President was really born in Kenya or Malaysia or wherever they think it was besides Hawaii. When Tim Russert died, it was reported that he died while recording audio tracks for Meet The Press; as a result, I saw one or two sick puppies on the internet act as though they had every right to demand that NBC let them hear the audio tracks Russert was recording at the time of his death, or else they were hiding something.
There are many other examples, of course... the CTists want to hold on to their nutty beliefs in the absence of the mountain of contradictory evidence, so they set an unreasonably high standard of personal proof that they know, legally, can never be met. This simply allows them to hold on to their belief and look down on people whose evidentiary standards are not held ridiculously high so as to cling to an unrealistic view.
