So the DOJ Inspector General told the FBI to turn over Strzok's phone ... and true to recent form, the FBI wiped it squeaky-clean before handing it over. How is this NOT obstruction of justice, and a crime? w.
Because they wiped the phone long before that. The FBI reuses phones: they get a phone back and wipe it before giving it to the next agent. Their database is supposed to retain all text messages, making phone contents superfluous, but it was buggy. All this from the OIG report.

This was not just ANY phone. This was the phone of a man who had to quit the Mueller investigation for being too biased. This was the phone of someone fired. Anyone who believes it was just "buggy software" doesn't know Mueller. w.

Mueller didn't tell people why Strzok was ejected (which IMO was more for embarrassing the investigation via adultery than for bias), so normal procedures were followed with their phones. That actually left some of the phones un-wiped, so the OIG found lots of new text messages.
