You are right, thanks for correcting me! I have read the original post, just I have no idea why, I misunderstood the thing, like not having the password. I think now all is clear…

Everybody else making this kind of mistakes don't reply to posts when you are tired!!! )

No problem passcodeunlock, and also just to add to your comment, the .wipekey exists on the HDD and is available to be carved out/extracted manually, no memory dump is required. It can be found in the Recovery partition, which is an unencrypted area of the disk.

/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.corestorage/

Disk, which specifically in this case is NOT ACCESSIBLE!

We can continue like this, it is fun D , but I'd better ask "the officer in the case" (which also doesn't exist as this is not a forensics case, but rather a data recovery one after a Mac has been accidentally flooded with coffee).

Apologies, I wasn't aware it was completely inaccessible, just showing as "non initialized disk" in Windows.

Also, the OP did not specify that it wasn't a forensic case. It could be a forensic case involving a laptop that has been covered in coffee.
