The Department of Justice wiped text messages between former FBI employees Lisa Page and Peter Strozk from their cell phones before the Office of the Inspector General could review them, a new report from the DOJ watchdog reveals.
Page and Strozk’s involvement with special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation has been heavily scrutinized after it was revealed they had sent numerous anti-Trump text messages back and forth to one another. Mueller has been tasked with looking into whether or not Donald Trump and his campaign associates coordinated with Russian officials to steal the 2016 election away from Hillary Clinton.
The 11-page report reveals that almost a month after Strzok was removed from Mueller’s team, his government-issued iPhone was wiped clean and restored to factory settings by another individual working in Mueller’s office. The special counsel’s Record’s Officer told investigators that “she determined it did not contain records that needed to be retained.”
“She noted in her records log about Strzok’s phone: ‘No substantive texts, notes or reminders,'” the report states.

got a name to go with this: “individual working in mueller’s office”?
I was just getting ready to post, check the NSA data collection center in Utah.
Apple still has them. The texts are like emails, they are off the phone but are in the cloud. Not erasable.
The DOJ appears to be very self-serving orientated organization!
Craig Livingstone is the head of the Deep State. Like Blofeld of SPECTRE

Iranian Terrorist Attack Against U.S. Revealed-How Bill Clinton concealed it from the public Frontpagemagazine ^ | October 7, 2015 | Arnold Ahlert Iranian Terrorist Attack Against U.S. Revealed How Bill Clinton concealed it from the public and U.S. intelligence. October 7, 2015 Arnold Ahlert A bombshell report by the Washington Times reveals that fecklessness in the face of terror isn’t a condition exclusive to the Obama administration. "Bill Clinton’s administration gathered enough evidence to send a top-secret communique accusing Iran of facilitating the deadly 1996 Khobar Towers terrorist bombing,” the Times states, "but suppressed that information from the American public and some elements of U.S. intelligence for fear it would lead to an outcry for reprisal, according to documents and interviews.” Nineteen American...
Bill Clinton White House suppressed evidence of Iran’s terrorism The Washington Times ^ | October 5, 2015 | John Solomon Bill Clinton’s administration gathered enough evidence to send a top-secret communique accusing Iran of facilitating the deadly 1996 Khobar Towers terrorist bombing, but suppressed that information from the American public and some elements of U.S. intelligence for fear it would lead to an outcry for reprisal, according to documents and interviews. Before Mr. Clinton left office, the intelligence pointing toward Iran’s involvement in the terror attack in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 U.S. servicemen and wounded hundreds was deemed both extensive and “credible,” memos show.
Perhas they should add another J-DOJJ=Department of Joke Justice 😠
But rest assured, whatever the carriers keep or discard, there is that gigantic server farm in Bluffdale, Utah, which has the capacity to store all voice traffic, not to mention all texts, metadata plus data. What could go wrong?

so, how does this location square up with “hammer” huber’s 10-20?
James Brien Comey...met his future wife, Patrice.
In June 1983, after his first year of law school at the University of Chicago, he was visiting Patrice in Sierra Leone, where she was in the Peace Corps...
Wonder if his wife is CIA?
What is the name of the “she” that wiped the phones
I am not even a reporter but, that should be the first question ask.
The DOJ is TOTALLY CORRUPT!!
Wipe the crook who made this decision. Just as Clinton’s crony should’ve been executed when he stole and destroyed compromising documents from the National Archives.
The DOJ CONTINUES to protect criminals as it
attacks innocent Americans POLITICALLY.
Other than letting KNOWN terrorists and Clinton
criminals and seditionists FREE, what do they do?
I worked in law enforcement relations for one of the big cell companies. The texts are stored on the company servers. If the DOJ destroyed anything, what they destroyed was copies of the texts acquired via a subpoena. The carrier certainly didn’t destroy them.
i.e. they still exist.
I knew this was the case.
Mueller was to identify and destroy all traces of impropriety that the Dems used to destroy Trump. Too bad they don’t remember rule number one about the internet: The internet is forever.
This lot makes Nixon look like a piker...
“his iPhone was wiped clean....”
“Do you mean with a cloth?”
Put a fork in it. This coup is well on it’s way.
Drip, drip, drip..
Flood, flood, flood....
They own the power.
Look up Nazi Germany.
The coup will not be Televised...
The coup IS live!
Crime? Only so if one is punished.
