Does anyone think we will ever know what is on that phone?. They will hold on to that information tighter than they have held on to the Hale Christian school shooter's manifesto.
In other info, the shooter purchased a 5ft ladder on Friday at Home Depot. That is one short building!
"Thomas Matthew Crooks, the shooter at the Trump rally, went to the rifle range at the Clairton Sportsmen’s Club in Pennsylvania on Friday, according to a senior law enforcement official.
On Saturday morning, the shooter went to Home Depot and bought a five-foot ladder before going to the gun store and purchasing the 50 rounds of ammunition, the source said.
Later that afternoon, Crooks drove to the rally site in Butler, where CNN previously reported he was spotted by local law enforcement acting suspiciously by the magnetometers outside the event, and then not spotted again until he was perched on that roof.
Authorities are still working toward retracing all of his activities in the days leading up to the shooting and have asked the public for help in building out the full picture of his movements. "
Give them a gold star!
Depending on the nature of his manifesto — if he has a manifesto — we may never hear about it.
They tell what they want to tell us. Some of it is true. Most of it isn’t.
Now they can erase everything. Happy for them. /sarc
If Apple wouldn’t help they should be forced out of business. Trump should raise their tariffs to 5000 percent. See how many IPhones they sell at $15,000. (I know, math not correct )
They did some high tech work. Held the phone up to the dead guy’s face.
ONLY TO ERASE EVERYTHING ON IT!! OOPSIE!
Absolutely!
We will know exactly what they want us to know as soon as they finish making it up.
Of course they were able to open it... they probably supplied it to him.
..... and are in the process of completely erasing it now.
...aand made sure to delete every phone call and text sent to Crooks by his FBI handler.
They need to delete all the texts about their payments to him.
Uh, this was an assassination attempt. Why are they announcing anything related to their investigation? What purpose does it serve to let us know they cracked the murderer’s phone?

FBI Later: “His manifesto was on his phone but you can’t read it. Ha! Ongoing investigation. Blah blah blah. Later we shall stonewall FOIA requests.”
So he not only waltzed in with a rifle, but his own ladder too? And none of crackerjack SS or FBI or local LEO's noticed? Riiiggghhhtt.
He was probably groomed. History purged long ago.
Does anyone believe this corrupt FBI, under Wray and Garland, will do a good and honest investigation and that we will learn the truth? I don’t.
That only means they will get rid of any evidence.
“hey Jack, I heard you cracked the phone”
“sure did”
“cool, be sure to wipe my messages”
> Does anyone think we will ever know what is on that phone? <
You’ve got that right. Eventually a transcript will be released. It will be 80% false. The other 20% will be innocent stuff like calls to his grandma.
GOP congressional committee: We demand to see that cell phone!
FBI official: We accidentally erased everything on the phone. Then we lost it.
GOP congressional committee: Oh, that’s too bad. Thanks for stopping by.
