expenditures by sol,rs associatedwith the 25'nward Regular Democratic

organz5-ation are, in fact, personal expenditures. Additionally,
intercepted conversations suggest that sol,rs and his wife are renting
subject Location 4, which suggests that financial documents,
including the apartment lease and other records, will be l-ocated at
this location. For example, ofi or about March 2G, zoLs, at
approximately 11:55 a.m. (call #i87B), sor,rs placed an outgoing
call
on Target Phone 2 Lo a representative of the property
developer behind
The Roosevel-t Co1lect,ion, where subject r,ocation 4 is
located.
ouring the carl, the representative informed solrs that a two
bedroom, two bathroom apartment may become available in ,Ju1y.
so1,rs
informed the representative that he was looking L,o rent right
now
and may purchase a property as an investment Iater.
sol,rs arso said
t.hat he had a unit in River City (Subject lJocation 3) . In another
intercepted calr on or about June 19, 2015, at approximat,eLy 2z4L
p'm- (call- #13375), solrs placed an outgoing call on Target phone
2 to "Roxy" at the Roosevelt Colrection. During the caI1, Roxy
informed solrs that she had received his application, proof
of
income, and a copy of his identification in connection with
his rentar
of an apartment at the Roosevelt Colrection. During the caIr, sol,rs
informed Roxy that he would arrange to have his bank automatically
transfer rent for the apartment on a certain day

vi. Target Phone 2
1-64. As further described inAttachment F-1, Target Phone 2 is

the cel1u1ar telephone used by SOLIS in the intercepted conversations
and text messages discussed above regarding the Subject Offenses.
165. Based upon my training and experience, f know that
information stored within a cel-lular phone may provide crucial
evidence of the "who, what, why, when, where, and how" of the criminal
conduct under investigation, t,hus enabling the United States to
establish and prove each element or alLernatively, Lo exclude the
innocenL from further suspicion. fn my training and experience, the
information stored within a ceIl phone can indicaLe who has used or
controlled t.he cell phone. This t'user attribution" evidence is
analogous to the search for "indicia of occupancy" while executing
a search warranL at a residence. In this case, establishing SOLIS,s
use of Target Phone 2 wilI, other things, establish his voice
among
identification in wire j-nterceptions made over Target Phone 2. In
addition, contacts lists, inst.anL messaging logs, and communications
(and the data associated with the foregoing, such as date and time)
may indicate who used or controlled the cel-I phone at a relevant time.
Further, such stored electronic data can show how and when the ce}1
phone and its related account were accessed or used. Such "timeline"
information allows investigators to understand the chronological
context of cell phone access, use, and events relating to the crime
113
under invesLigation. This "timeline" information may tend to either

inculpat.e or exculpate the cel1 phone account owner.
166. Cellu1ar phones may contain relevanL evidence of the
Subject Offenses, including text messages made or received from
Target Phone 2 t.hat are located in the memory of Target Phone 2, which
messages may provide information regarding the identities of, and
t.he methods and. means of operation and communication used by, Lhe
participanls in the Subject Offenses. Moreover, d"igital photographs
located in t.he memory of Target Phone 2 may contain images of
participants involved in Lhe Subject OffehEes. Moreover, digital
photographs stored in Target Phone 2 may contain images of SOLIS,
SOi,IS's associaLes (including persons involved in or knowledgeable
about the Subject Offenses), places frequented by SOLIS leading up
to and during theSubject Offenses, and locations and
instrumentalities used in committing the Subject Offenseg.

t67. In addition, based on my training and experience, f know
that information stored within a cell phone may indicate the

geographic location of t.he ce}I phone and user at a particular t.ime
(e.g., IocaLion integrated into an image or video senL via email or
text message to include both metadata and Lhe physical location
displayed in an image or video). Stored electronic data may also
provide relevanL insight into the cell phone owner's sLate of mind
as it relaLes to the offense under invesLigation. For example,
informaLion in the cetl phone may indicaLe Lhe owner's motive and
intent to commit a crime (e.g., communications relating to the
714
crime),orconsciousnessofguilt(e'g"deletingcommunicationsin

vaa. Specifics Regarding Searches of Computer
Systems.
115
J :a'.':1, :+:i,:irP.>r+j-il
L6g. Based upon my training and experience, and the training

and experience of specially trained computer personnel whom I have
Consulted, searches of evidence from Compulers commonly require
agents to download or copy information from the computers and their
components, or remove most or all computer items (computer hardware,
computer software, and computer related documentation) to be
processed later by a qualified computer expert in a laboratory or
other controlled environment. This is almost always true because of
the following:
a. Computer storage devices can store the equivalent of
t.housand.sof pages of information. Especially when the user wants
Lo conceal criminal evidence, he or she often stores it with deceptive
file names. This reguires searching authorities to examine all the

stored data to determine wheLher it is included in the warrant. This
sorting process can take days or.weeks, depending on the volume of
data sLored, and it wouId. be generally impossible to accomplish this
kind of data search on site.
b. Searching computer systems for criminal evidence is
a highly technical process reguiring expert skill and a properly
conLrolled environmenL. The vast array of computer hardware and
software available requires even computer experts to specialize in
some systems and applications, so it is difficult to know before a
search which expert should analyze the system and its data. The search
of a compuLer system is an exacting scientific procedure which is
designed to protecL the integrity of the evidence and to recover even
116
hidden, erased, compressed, password protect.ed, or encr)r'pt,ed f i1es.

since computer evidence is exLremely vulnerabre Lo t.ampering or
destruction (which may be caused by mal-icious code or norma]
activities of an operating system), the controlled environment of
a laboratory is essential to its complete and accurate analysis.
L7o. rn order to fu1Iy retrieve data from a computer system,
the analyst needs all storage media as werl- as the computer. The
analyst needs arr the system software (operating , systems or
interfaces, and hardware drivers) and any applications software
which may have been used to creat.e the data (whether stored on hard
disk drives or on external media).
L71-. In order to gain access to data from a computer system and
t.o fulry analyze t,hat data, an analyst may need to have access to
the following information or equipment: (a) passwords, encrlption
keys, and other access devices that may be necessary to access the
computer equipment; (b) documents or ot.her items demonstrating the
presence or absence of computer software that. would al1ow others to
cont,rol the items, and presence or absence of security software
designed to detect such malicious software,. (c) document.s or other
items d.emonst.rating t.he attachment of oLher computer hardware or
storage media; and (d) counter forensic programs and associated data
that are designed to eliminate data.
l'72. fn addition, a computer, its storage devices, peripherals,
and Internet connection interface may be instrumenLalities of the
