He didn't delete it. The officer did.

I wonder if he'll sue them for damages

More like "sorry I couldn't remember the password. I guessed, but I have a bad memory"

If you're in this situation, don't say this. You are under no obligation to explain anything, and anything you say will be used against you (and will not be used to defend you). Just shut the fuck up.
