Thousands of FBI-issued Samsung 5 phones had technical issues that resulted in a failure to store text messages over a period of a year between June 2016 and May 2017, CBS News' Paula Reid reports, citing a senior Justice Department official.
The news comes after the DOJ confirmed it is missing texts between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, the former lawyers on special counsel Robert Mueller's team who came under fire for texts critical of President Trump. The DOJ has been unable to retrieve their texts over a five-month period after the election.
While the focus is on the data lapse during FBI investigations into Russian intervention in the election and the FBI's investigation of Hillary Clinton's email server, this also means the FBI is missing possible data about corruption, sensitive cases and other important matters.

buried at the end...
Page had a phone that failed to store data from December 2016 into May 2017. But the data lapse, Reid reports, was unique to each phone, and phones stopped collecting data as far back as June 2016,
“...then somebody goes to jail.”
ROFL. Good one!
I don’t believe this for a second unless some evil being installed some program in their phones which caused something to go haywire but I doubt it. Why with these people, why didn’t it happen with many others....
Nope, not buying it.
Anyone that doers is dumber than a journalist.
And we’re talking really dumb.
Yeah, that’s right; the dog ate their texts.
If the lamestream libtard media was in the tank any more than they are, they would literally drown.
Another side effect of global warming.
Ahh...the old “spread the blame” trick. Seen it before. Didn’t work then either.
yea they think we would rather lose our country than fight them, they are wrong there too..convention of states needed..

Your Christmas test?
That thought also occurred to me earlier today.
The nature of Mueller's investigation is not to find proof of a suspected crime, it's to discover or fabricate something that can be turned into one.
Start off with an opening statement pleading the 5th and repeat in response to every subsequent question.
Worked for Lois Lerner...
The phone isn’t what saves them. They are all automatically saved on the phone companies server. The user can’t delete that copy even if they want to. This whole thing is a smoke screen. These texts must be very, very damning.

Dollars to donuts says the FBI will either threaten the phone companies to make them delete the records or the leFtBI will hack into the phone company database and delete the records. Being inept, they’ll get caught and explain it as another “glitch “.
It’s laughable because the only phones that suffered from this alleged glitch were the ones issued to the FBI. What the millions of other identical Samsung phones sold around the world? How many if those have this glitch? ZERO!
So are they trying to hide needles in a haystack....or are there that many traitors in our government?
And what about burner phones?
June 2016...before that conference in Halifax in August. The one that McCain, Steele, and Tim Kaine attended...
Great Minds think alike.
Threaten to pull Samsung’s massive Govt. contract over this claim and see what happens next...
