What are the odds of 31 phones accidentally wiped clean?”

FOIA Helps Show Weissmann & Team Knew What They were Doing When Govt Phones Were Wiped Clean

CONSCIOUSNESS OF GUILT: Records released by the Justice Department this week suggest top Mueller aides erased records from at least 15 phones.

Senate Homeland Security Chair Ron Johnson is asking a Justice Department watchdog to probe recently revealed documents that suggest members of special counsel Robert Mueller’s team wiped records from their official phones.

Records released by the Justice Department this week in response to a Freedom of Information Act request suggest top Mueller aides erased the information from at least 15 phones, citing forgotten passwords, physical damage and missing hardware.

“These reports are troubling and raise concerns about record retention and transparency,” Johnson wrote in a letter to DOJ inspector general Michael Horowitz. “Therefore, I respectfully request that your office open an investigation into this matter to determine what, why, and how information was wiped, whether any wrongdoing occurred, and who these devices belonged to.”
