Word has come out about dozens of conveniently-wiped cell phones belonging to government officials who investigated the false theory that Trump and his campaign colluded with Russian president Vladimir Putin. The phones, used by agents on Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team, might have contained revealing evidence about official misconduct or even crimes.
The fact of the wipings wasn’t unearthed by law enforcement or an official investigative body. It came as part of a private lawsuit filed by the conservative watchdog Judicial Watch.

No law enforcement body has interviewed Maxwell or checked out his claims to this day.
It wasn’t the first time that Mills, who declined to comment on Maxwell’s account, was named in a document disappearing operation. (Continued...)
