The feds wanted the FBI to access the phone calls

The feds wanted the FBI to access the phone calls on a cell phone and, if necessary, get a warrant. But the court noted it was unclear what the warrant would be, and only prosecutors could conduct surveillance on the calls.

Instead, the court asked the FBI to collect a warrant to conduct surveillance on all of Messenger's conversations, such as Messenger's original calls with several friends.

Despite the warrant, prosecutors were still unable to obtain access to the conversations, according to news reports. That's because the court decided to set the time frame for when the law enforcement would access these communications, according to the Fresno Bee.

The court said it was not clear how long it would take to obtain the warrant, but the court would ultimately have to issue it, and it may take at least one more year for it to be issued, according to news reports.

In his request to compel the FBI to provide information on Messenger, Yetter asked, "Can you please provide us with the original recording and an explanation of the scope of the communications you spoke with, as a basis for your inquiry?" The court, in his affidavit, was also asked to identify the suspects, who are no longer in prison, and if any more of Messenger's messages would be intercepted, the court said.

While the court did not say how long it would take the FBI to obtain access to the recording recordings, the Fresno Bee reports that the government would be required to provide the recordings to the FBI if they came from the same country.

"We are prepared to share, and we are prepared to offer, any information you would like us to share with other law enforcement agencies in the area concerned," Butter wrote.

The court also did not require the FBI to provide a phone number or other identifying information for the phone records requested, according to CBS News.Bobby Williams (Photo: The Enquirer) Story Highlights The father of a girl found killed in a shooting in Virginia recently has said the boy was a "good friend" of his.
