As an investigative agency, preservation of evidence is job #1 for the FBI.

If they can’t do that, there is no further reason for them to exist.

[GOPJ]

Intentionally destroying evidence is a crime. And should be treated as such.

[NormsRevenge]

Who watches the Watchers?

I would think NSA or someone has every message ever sent.

[CdMGuy]

Here are a couple of suggestions:

Replace Jeff Sessions with Rudy Giuliani as Attorney General.

Replace Christopher Wray with former Sheriff David Clarke as FBI Director.

Then sit back and enjoy the show.

The dates.

Check the dates of the ‘saved messages’ vs. the dates of the ‘missing’.

That will tell you all you need to know.........................

[Red Badger]

‘Failed to preserve’...................so, is that the new meaning of ‘grossly negligent’...................

Did Hillary visit with her cloth?

I'd be interested to know if they "failed to preserve" messages to and from other agents/officials.

[Joe Bfstplk]

Without someone going to prison for this the practice will continue.

[Mr. N. Wolfe]

Not surprised. It’s business as usual.

The Republicans let the IRS get away with not preserving emails during the Lois Lerner investigation. Absolutely no repercussions. The FBI isn’t any different than the IRS or any other rogue government agency.

[Kaisersrsic]

If “the FBI’s technical system for retaining text messages sent and received on FBI mobile devices failed to preserve text messages . . .” perhaps they need to look somewhere else, like on the actual mobile devices. They would not have used a hammer on the phones, or would they . . .

[BeauBo]

Actively destroying evidence is passively called “failed to preserve”.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

The NSA probably has them.

WHO SPECIFICALLY gave the order(s) that led to these messages going missing? NO “MISTAKES WERE MADE” BULL CRAP!

WHAT SPECIFIC PEOPLE WERE RESPONSIBLE!

[Amish with an attitude]

Sounds like a bona fide conspiracy if there ever was one.

[LS]

False report. Sessions and Horowitz have everything.

OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE CHARGES need to be applied IMMEDIATELY!! PERP WALK IN HANDCUFFS...NOW!!! NOW!!!!
