Secret Service yet to uncover missing Jan. 6 texts for House probe

The U.S. Secret Service has handed over thousands of documents to the House Jan. 6 special committee, but is still working to recover potential missing text exchanges from the day of the 2021 Capitol riot.

The agency said it has been unable to retrieve the missing texts, but continues its search for any lost communications from that day, according to CNN.

“We continue to scrutinize our records, databases, and archives to ensure full compliance with the Committee’s subpoena,” Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement. “We are taking all feasible steps to identify records responsive to the subpoena, to include forensic examinations of agency phones and other investigative techniques.
