It wouldn't even make sense to hide tweets like that (a bot can easily download all your tweets without watching for you to delete them... and deleting illegal tweets doesn't make them disappear from twitter servers)

No criminal knows everything. Just because it "wouldn't even make sense" doesn't mean a criminal wouldn't try it. Caroline Ellison did delete her Tumblr accounts a few days ago. (Though if she actually wants more attention and is trying to exploit the Streisand effect... well played, Caroline, well played.)

I'm pretty sure Caroline deleted her Tumblr accounts because a Twitter mob was digging through them and doxxing her friends (many of my friends were scrambling to hide their connections to her).

Doesn't explain deleting tweets about GAAP and cash on hand from this current scandal.
