Problem is that they Never did the paperwork.....Peace

FBI officials issued approvals after the fact to justify their actions.

The after-the-fact approvals were a "good-hearted but not well-thought-out" solution to put phone carriers at ease, she said. In true emergencies, Caproni said, agents always had the legal right to get phone records, and lawyers have now concluded there was no need for the after-the-fact approval process.

The searches involved only records of calls and not the content of the calls.

FBI managers signed 11 "blanket" national security letters addressing past searches, officials told The Post.
