The 11-page report reveals that almost a month after Strzok was removed from Muellers team, his government-issued iPhone was wiped clean and restored to factory settings by another individual working in Muellers office. The special counsels Records Officer told investigators that she determined it did not contain records that needed to be retained.
She noted in her records log about Strzoks phone: No substantive texts, notes or reminders,' the report states.
When the OIG obtained his old cell phone in January, it had been issued to another individual within the agency and investigators were unable to recover any text messages sent or received by Strozk on that device.
Two weeks after Page departed Muellers team on July 15, 2017, her government-issued iPhone was also wiped and restored to factory settings and had not been reissued to another person within the agency. No one within the special counsels office or the Justice Management Divisions of the agency had any records as to who cleared all the data from the iPhone.
Digging is needed here. I never saw the July date for Page’s leaving. All has been withheld for over 2 years. No one knows the exact dates of Strzok’ entrance and exit from Meuller’s Team. In late Oct. or early Nov. this news came out and they claimed Strzok was recently dismissed from meuller’s Team. They claimed Page had also left the SC Team. No dates were ever given. We were digging on this when it happened. Not many were interested.
Known that Page was added to Team in June by Meuller. Only site was a newspaper article. When this exploded the SC made everything retroactive. Nothing was wiped prior to Nov. 2017. We need dates of their service and what they did for Meuller. I am sure this is all “Secret”.

How can they wipe her phone after she left on 7-15-17 when she was still there as of 9-20-17(see prior link). I have no doubt the IG Report is fairly accurate but they can’t change news stories in archives. When were Page and Strzok added and when were they removed. My guess is after the news broke and many were talking about it on FR.
