I have a hard time believing the FBI can’t break into a suspect’s cellphone.

"I have a hard time believing the FBI can’t break into a suspect’s cellphone."

I thought the FBI used a company in Israel to get into the iPhone(s) of the San Diego terrorists. The Feds filed a lawsuit to force Apple to turn over the unlocking procedures, but then withdrew the case when they were able to get "Cellebrite, a privately held Israeli company that specializes in transferring and extracting data from phones..." The FBI wouldn't confirm they'd used that company.

Intelligent and honest folks no longer work there after the OBAMA re-staffing for 8 years ?

If the FBI can’t unlock the phone, no doubt the NSA has digital recordings of all conversations made with the phone.
