Senators Grassley and Johnson want to know, among things, what the Justice Department has done to recover missing phones and whether phones were reviewed for evidence of leaks. ===================================================================================
Republican Sens. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Chuck Grassley of Iowa sent a letter to the Justice Department Wednesday asking for more information regarding missing phones used by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team during the Russian collusion investigation.
The senators sent the letter after finding out the Justice Department "could not locate 59 of the 96 phones used by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team," according to Grassley's website.
The two senators wrote to the DOJ's Office of the Inspector General in September 2020 regarding allegations that cell phones assigned to "multiple people on then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigative team were 'wiped' for various reasons during [the Russia investigation]."
In a response on May 11, 2021, the OIG reported that 59 of the 96 phones assigned the Special Counsel's Office were unaccounted for.
That report showed that in June 2019, the DOJ took possession of 79 of 96 phones that belonged to members of Muller's team to be reviewed for official records. The records included notes and text messages, which were then sent to DOJ or FBI email systems for preservation. However, not all the phones were subject to record preservation.
The two lawmakers are now following up with requests for further information including:
the names of SCO employees whose cell phones were not reviewed for official records
what, if any, actions are being taken by the DOJ to recover the 59 phones t
whether the DOJ reviewed the phones to ascertain "whether they were used to leak sensitive or classified information."
Arrest whoever had possession of the phone until they come up with the phone.
They should have went after them earlier. Fat chance in hell thosee criminals will ever produce those phones now.
It’s only a coverup if it’s for the wrong ‘side’
John Durham is on the case, we will get the results in 2050, stay tuned......
Yawn…rat rules…
Okay, who's got the Ceti Eels...?
Ricardo Montalban was a great actor................
I would be 95....................
So long as the perpetrators are still breathing, missing phones are irrelevant
