IRS Shocker: Filing Reveals Lerner Blackberry Destroyed
The New York Observer ^ | Monday, August 25, 2014 | Sidney Powell

Posted on 08/25/2014 8:00:30 PM PDT by kristinn

The IRS filing in federal Judge Emmet Sullivan’s court reveals shocking new information. The IRS destroyed Lerner’s Blackberry AFTER it knew her computer had crashed and after a Congressional inquiry was well underway. As an IRS official declared under the penalty of perjury, the destroyed Blackberry would have contained the same emails (both sent and received) as Lois Lerner’s hard drive.

We all know by now that Lois Lerner’s hard drive crashed in June 2011 and was destroyed by IRS. The emails of up to twenty other related IRS officials were missing in remarkably similar “crashes,” leading many to speculate that Lois Lerner’s Blackberry perhaps held the key. Now, the Observer can confirm that a year after the infamous hard drive crash, the IRS destroyed Ms. Lerner’s Blackberry—and without making any effort to retain the emails from it.

Judge Sullivan has had to pry information from the IRS to learn anything about Ms. Lerner’s Blackberry. Now, with these latest revelations, I’m confident he’s not finished.

In two elusive and nebulous sworn declarations, we can glean that Ms. Lerner had two Blackberries. One was issued to her on November 12, 2009. According to a sworn declaration, this is the Blackberry that contained all the emails (both sent and received) that would have been in her “Outlook” and drafts that never were sent from her Blackberry during the relevant time.

With incredible disregard for the law and the Congressional inquiry, the IRS admits that this Blackberry “was removed or wiped clean of any sensitive or proprietary information and removed as scrap for disposal in June 2012.” This is a year after her hard drive “crash” and months after the Congressional inquiry began.

The IRS did not even attempt to retrieve that data. It cavalierly recites: “There is no record of any attempt...

We'd go to jail for these actions.

The Government Royals need to be held accountable.

“If it ever looks like Lois will spill the beans the thugs in the White Hut will erase her brains with a bullet.”

You’re right and I imagine that will happen sometime soon. Probably a faked auto accident. Remember that black guy who worked for Clinton who died in a plane crash but was autopsied and found to have a bullet hole in the back of his head? (Ron something)

What you said...

Of course, I still do get a laugh out of the fact that Nixon resigned the Presidency over a third rate Burglary that lacked a Body Count. Timing is everything I guess.

I cannot help but wonder IF there was any discussion of what to do with the evidence, or if one person unilaterally deep sixed it?

Whatever they are hiding has to be damning or the administration would have thrown her under the bus a long time ago. One thing for sure, all this coverup isn’t to protect her.

Whatever’s on those emails must be SO damning to Obozo, that the IRS would rather be ridiculed and cursed to the ends of the earth, rather than reveal it.

This is now getting to point of ludicrous. No one - not even sycophant liberals - are going to believe such a series of ‘unfortunate’ mishaps.

our email is retained indefinitely by the NSA, but we can’t get mails from the IRS.

Protesters should be protesting this unequal treatment under the law.

Media watch => I entered "lerner blackberry destroyed" (both with and without the quotes) into google news search for the past 24 hrs. As of now, the Observer article (posted 5 hours ago) is the only hit . Will check back from time to time.

It’s a ‘so what’ scenario. Holder will quash anything. <

Judge Sullivan is beyond the reach of Holder's authority.

And he has the power to appoint a Special Prosecutor -- outside the DOJ.
