LOS ANGELES — For years, a locked cellphone belonging to the suspect in a Pasadena, California, homicide sat in an evidence room as investigators sought a way to get around the device's security measures.
Police might have finally caught a break.
Israeli mobile forensics firm Cellebrite has released a software update with a "Lock Bypass" feature that could allow police to access the suspect's locked Samsung g550t phone and retrieve any evidence about the December 2015 slaying, according to a recently filed search warrant application.
