Cell phone in Gruver hazing case unlocked by FBI

Well this sucks. Looks like FBI has hacked the new Apple security.
A cellphone seized from a former LSU student accused in the 2017 hazing death of fraternity pledge Max Gruver has finally been unlocked after months of unsuccessful attempts, East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney Hillar Moore III said Friday.
An attorney for Matthew Naquin, the ex-student charged with negligent homicide, called the development a “big blow” to privacy rights.
“Everyone needs to know that no matter what Apple or Samsung or anyone says, the Government can get into your phone,” John McLindon, who represents Naquin, said in an email response to a request for comment.

Did they have a warrant?

Prosecutors confiscated Naquin's phone in November 2017 through a court-authorized search warrant, but various attempts to unlock the phone had been unsuccessful until the FBI finally gained access to its contents.
"They have provided us with the raw data from the phone and a program to read the data," Moore said. "It will take us some time to go through." The district attorney said prosecutors are only interested in the phone's data for a specific period of time, from when Gruver began pledging with Phi Delta Theta until the time the phone was seized.
An assistant district attorney in Moore's office who is not involved in criminal cases will act as a "clean team" to make sure no communications between Naquin and any attorney are examined, he said. McLindon said the issue “is not about one person’s cell phone” but rather Fifth Amendment privacy rights.

Yea I'm not following this. The govt can search my home, car, financial along with seizing or freezing them, but somehow a locked phone is the end all be all of their reach?
Oh and they can listen to your phone calls and obtain your phone records from your provider

Why wouldn’t you smash your phone with a sledgehammer and chunk it into the MS river and say you lost it?

A big blow to the privacy rights of people who haze other people then leave them to die of alcohol poisoning

It’s more about 4th amendment, really. I don’t see the issue people have with a proper 4th amendment “search” of new technology. This was coming.

Is it a legal search and seizure?
Is this different than bringing in a safe cracker?
Not so much a 'the government is watching us' issue as much as a settled issue at this point.

With a warrant supported by probable cause, with supporting facts, yes.

Bigger concern is when the ability gets out of the FBIs knowledge.
Apples recent ad campaign kind of a waste at this point.
