After the FBI has confirmed that it successfully unlocked an iPhone 5c that was allegedly owned by one of the terrorists involved in the San Bernardino bombings, it appears that it is not going to give up when it comes to iOS devices. The FBI has promised to help the Arkansas District Attorney unlock an iPhone and iPod that could be involved in a murder case. We do not know if they have found the key or have directly acquired a software that will do all these tasks automatically, however, it seems that the FBI is going to get a lot of money from its "feat" of unlocking an iOS device, a task that has taken it months.

Two teenagers have been charged with the possible murder of two classmates, and the FBI has promised to unlock an iPhone and an iPod owned by these boys. Meanwhile, the investigating judge has decided to suspend the procedure to observe the progress of the FBI in unlocking both devices. Not many more details have been specified, in fact the FBI used as an excuse for Apple to end up surrendering, that the method used in the San Bernardino iPhone would only be applicable in that caseMeanwhile, they seem to lie once again, now shaking hands with the Arkansas Attorney General's Office to unlock two more devices.

The Arkansas Prosecutor has been in possession of these iOS devices since July last year, in the meantime, he has in no way managed to access the data on them. Meanwhile, the lawyer for one of the teenagers has reported that they are not at all concerned about what the device may contain after hearing the news that the FBI will help to unlock them. Yet another soap opera from an FBI thirsty for headlines.
