Protecting the device against external communication seems like a good first step to preserve the integrity of the evidence. But I'm not totally confident that's the right answer here. I'll have to review the question again carefully.

A) Notify the fact to the local authority or employer? Really? Isn't that a bit like snitching on your friends? Not cool, man, not cool.

B) Remove the battery or turn-off the device? Nah, that's just going to make the device owner really angry. Not a good way to start an investigation.
