You Knew They Were Lying
The Feds said: It was a one off request; only Apple could do it; it was a terrorism case; it was for the victims; … Except: US pushes Apple for access to iPhones in criminal cases.
This phone is using an older version of IOS, but is a different phone. Oh, yes, the case is over – the suspect pleaded guilty to drug charges and if they wanted the phone unlocked they could have made it part of the plea deal. It isn’t Apple’s problem if the DoJ can’t do a decent job of plea bargaining.
Call the Israelis and pay the price. If it’s as important a case as claimed $90K is cheap. Maybe DoJ should find a lawyer to negotiate a volume discount.
