San Bernardino Victims To Legally Support FBI Federal Court Order

Previous year, it was hard and sad time for the people of San Bernardino. Many lost their loved ones in the terrorist shooting that took place there. In course of the investigation that took place after the event, a lot of information has come out and a lot of items confiscated by the FBI. One of the items was an iPhone 5c belonging to the shooter of the San Bernardino case, Syed Farook. According to the FBI, this phone potentially held a lot of information and needed to be unlocked. For this purpose, they released a court order aimed at the manufacturing company of the phone, Apple, to create such software which will allow the FBI to bypass the phone’s security system and gain access to it.
