Over two dozen phones belonging to members of Robert Mueller’s special counsel team were wiped clean before they were handed over to the Inspector General, according to information contained in 87 pages of DOJ records released on Thursday.
Andrew Weismann wiped two of his three Special Counsel's Office phones.
He wiped one by accident.
He wiped the other by entering the wrong password too many times.
Has anyone ever wiped their phone by accident? Asking for a friend. pic.twitter.com/MFsb4kInbB

Some of the phones were wiped using the Apple operating system’s ‘wrong-password’ failsafe, where the wrong password must be entered ten times - after which the system wipes the drive.
Those who couldn’t seem to remember their password 10 times in a row include ‘attack dog’ lawyer Andrew Weissman, who urged DOJ attorneys to go rogue and ‘not’ help US Attorney John Durham investigate FBI and DOJ conduct during the Trump investigation.
Significant-
Special Counsel leader Andrew Weissmann "accidentally" wiped his iPhone twice
How it works:
1) The user/admin selects the "Erase Data" feature
2) User then enters the wrong passcode 10 times.
Weissmann uses a phone for months then forgets the passcode?🤔 https://t.co/QTdfY0YvYN pic.twitter.com/qJY9h9nBsk

The malarkey continues (via National Review):
A phone belong to assistant special counsel James Quarles “wiped itself without intervention from him,” the DOJ’s records state.
Andrew Weismann, a top prosecutor on Mueller’s team, “accidentally wiped” his cell phone, causing the data to be lost. Other members of the team also accidentally wiped their phones, the DOJ said.
Phones issued to at least three other Mueller prosecutors, Kyle Freeny, Rush Atkinson, and senior prosecutor Greg Andres were also wiped of data.
Additionally, the cell phone of FBI lawyer Lisa Page was misplaced by the special counsel’s office. While it was eventually obtained by the DOJ inspector general, by that point the phone had been restored to its factory settings, wiping it of all data. The phone of FBI agent Peter Strzok was also obtained by the inspector general’s office, which found “no substantive texts, notes or reminders” on it.
This is an alarming thread spotlighting clear malfeasance during a political and judicial process. If lawyers did this during a court trial, they would be in jail. https://t.co/NpVyvLl45P

Lowlifes! What a complete waste of taxpayer money! They need to reimburse us!!!
Very true and all of them should go to prison.
Gitmo for sure and re-open ALCATRAZ. PERIOD
People do not realize how the acts of these NAZIS will also be used against the Dems and that once justice is gone it will not return. These NAZI SS “men” should be shot at sunrise with a copy of the U.S. Constitution stuffed into each of these traitor’s mouths
This single act, committed by these demoncrats, speaks volumes just how corrupt they are, doesn’t it ? Criminals each and every one of them!! Disgusting!!!!
Hillary taught them well! Good puples.
Nixon shreaded and was punished.
This was government property.
Jail time!
They ALL wiped their cell phones by accident??? Do they think we are idiots? Clearly they didn’t expect any repercussions. Apply might have the information on their servers. Shadowgate contractor Dynology would have it for sure, they sell the same electronic information that the NSA collects.
All these democrats should be in jail for a very long time!!!!
Pit bull Andrew Weismann, epitome of prosecuturial misconduct should have been disbarred years ago for all his corrupt acts and lies. Does he really think we the people are dumb enough to believe his excuses for scrubbing all their phones like as Hillary said, you mean with a cloth? Not with a cloth but with bleach it just as Hillary did and then destroyed all her devices. If Weissman, et al get away with this atrocity, there is no justice.
Didn’t hillary and her GANG of CRIMINALS do the same thing…??? And “what” came from it..??? NOTHING….!!! The Mantra is and always will be: “THEY can do whatever THEY “want”, in the name of SATAN……!!!!!
What a coincidental convenience. God, please bless this country with the coincidental convenience of all these anti American traitors ending up in prison before they push us God fearing America Patriots into a bloody uncivil war!!
Amen!
The country’s Constitutional Rights are off balance. American lawyers and our Justice System have slowing drained and robbed life out of America, then when you add Barack Obama into the mix with his corrupt Chicago knee-jerk take down methods and radical view points in leading up one of the most powerful and corrupt law enforcement agencies in the world you have some serious crooks who are payed by the tax payer to screw their own people…
Those cell phones are government property. ALL of the contents on those cell phones are also government property. To destroy ANY government document is a felony. They should all be arrested and tried for destruction of government documents but sadly that won’t happen since no one seems to care what crimes the Robert Mueller gang committed. No accountability for their criminal conduct yet again, Attorney General Barr?

If I hear one more time that “no man is above the law” I will throw up. The disrespect for the law in the USA is legion. This country smacks of a banana republic: the DOJ, FBI, CIA, State Dept.are full of liars and traitors and those that have remained silent are cowards and a complete disgrace to those who gave their lives in the line of duty before them. I am ashamed to be an American when I see so many “law-abiding citizens” crap all over the law and get away with. Will somebody please lock these criminal up or let the war begin.
Yes actually if the citizens are not satisfied and the government is not doing justice..we the people don’t need a election ot replace anyone..the people with the help of patriot military soldiers can throw them out and start over…
Doesn’t that fall under obstruction?
LouEsnider is passing MALWARE
What bothers me about this whole thing is: do Republican law makers and/or politicians have no power??? Why are we exposed to this abuse of power by Democrats and they are certainly “above the law”. Why do employees of the DOJ and/or FBI get by with this fraudulent activity and nothing is done to them? They got their jobs based on their intelligence / education and should know more than the average American. And do they really think the average American believes they wiped their phones accidentally????
In reply to a question in the article. No I have never wiped my phone by accident, but then I’ve never participated in a Russian witch hunt either.
I have always been told that you can never completely wipe something clean, there is a cloud or something somewhere that those text or emails are stored in. The cops can seem to find the info on anyone else!
Yes it is a disgrace as to how far their lawlessness goes. But when we speak of these things they deny it and we are called conspiracy theorist.
The phone company should have copy of all
You have to be extremely gullible to believe any of the coup actors. I consider their wiping their phones as Obstruction of Justice.
PUT THEM ALL IN JAIL INCLUDING MULLER………….
ONLY THE DEMOCRATS CAN BREAK THE LAW AND GET AWAY WITH IT JUST LOOK AT KILLERY CLINTON.
