Answer:
In Washington, the court may order the destruction of any photograph, motion picture film, digital image, videotape, or any other recording of an image that was made by the person in violation of voyeurism, if a person is convicted of a violation of this section. In your case the court may order the destruction of those evidences. It is covered under Rev. Code Wash. (ARCW) § 9A.44.115 which reads:“***
(5) If a person is convicted of a violation of this section, the court may order the destruction of any photograph, motion picture film, digital image, videotape, or any other recording of an image that was made by the person in violation of this section.”
