Option C is tempting, but reporting to law enforcement should be a secondary step. First, we need to make sure the scene is secured and the digital evidence is preserved. Can't have the feds snapping pictures of an unsecured crime scene, can we?

Hmm, I'm tempted to go with option B and interview the personnel. Understanding the laptop's usage history might give us some clues. But you're right, securing the scene should be the top priority.

Option D is the way to go! Securing the scene is crucial to preserve any potential digital evidence. Rushing to turn on the laptop could wipe out critical data.
