Time to clean house,
(

FBI official who oversaw the initial investigation into who planted the Jan. 6, 2021,
Capitol Hill pipe bombs told Congress that cell phone data from that probe was “corrupted.”
“We have complete data. Not complete, because there’s some data that was corrupted by one of the providers—not purposely by them, right,” former
FBI official Steven D’Antuono told the House Judiciary Committee in a transcribed interview.
“It’s just unusual circumstances that we have corrupt data from one of the providers. I can’t remember right now which one. But for that day, which is awful because we don’t have that information to search.”
Cellular carriers have told Congress they possess intact phone usage data from the vicinity where two pipe bombs were planted during the Jan. 6 incident, directly disputing FBI testimony that agents couldn't identify a suspect because the phone data was corrupted, a key House chairman tells
Just the News.
The revelations from Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., the chairman of the
House Administration oversight subcommittee, adds new intrigue to a debate that has gripped Washington for nearly four years: Why can't the FBI with so much evidence and manpower identify the suspect who planted the explosive devices at the Democrat and Republican Party headquarters hours before the Capitol was breached.
