Agents who worked on special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation joked about wiping their cellphones, according to an FBI agent who worked for the special counsel.

FBI agent William Barnett told government investigators last week that he heard other FBI agents at the special counsel’s office (SCO) “comically talk about wiping cellular telephones,” according to a summary of the interview released as part of the court proceedings in the case involving former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
