I'm not sure what to tag this question as, and I don't know if it should be on https://law.stackexchange.com

If there is someone being investigated for academic misconduct<br>
(eg. accused of taking photos of tests and sharing it online - *explicitly disallowed by the professor*)<br><br>

and during that investigation, there is no evidence of the tests on the person's cell/camera,<br><br>

but there is evidence of other crimes (completely unrelated to the university) on their cell/camera (eg. video of this person bullying a child),<br>

**can the university/investigators take any action?**

I think no because the investigators were only to investigate academic misconduct and nothing else<br>
but also yes because they have evidence of improper behaviour
