UPDATE

If we have followed investigative journalist, George Webb, this does not sound right - having followed George Webb's investigative video series for several months now.
IIRC, George actually tracked down, through meta-data, the fact that the Awans owned several properties in the DC area. He visited each and every domicile and interviewed any residents in or near the identified properties. George actually spoke with the resident Marine who rented from the Awans and found blackberry phones and laptops in the residence when he moved in. No mention of any damage to those items were noted at the time and over several weeks since. I'm checking my notes and will post here any relevant hints at same :

VCBestor 4/11/2017: Awan Spies Still in USA 

A U.S. Marine [Andre Taggart] rented house from a man calling himself "Alex" who turns out to be the spy, Imran Awan. The rental contract names Awan's wife Hina Alvi. She may still be in the country since the Marine said her van has been moved at the end of the street. A different renter in Virginia says they saw Imran Awan two weeks ago. He may be hiding behind other aliases besides "Alex." Awans own twelve houses in Virginia alone.

[Update: Imran Awan threatens to sue the Marine]

Suspected of stealing computer hardware and data from Congress, the Awan brothers left four to five government-issued laptops and several Blackberries in the Marine's home. The Marine said Awan claimed no ownership of the items.

Recall that FBI claimed not to recover all Hillary's infamous mobile devices.

Day 211.8 Webb video [May 22, 2017] What realtor is collecting these checks? I am not saying it's Patrick Sower, all I am saying is you mentioned he was a realtor yesterday: "Imran ordered the renters not to cooperate with law enforcement, the renter said, adding that he told him to begin making out rent in the form of a blank check and giving it to a realtor." It's time Andre Taggart gives an interview - where is Imran

Day 193.2 [May 5th]
"Again, all this information will be known once this blackberry enterprise server comes out that the Awans were keeping. Now remember, if you're not familiar with the Awans, they are charged in a criminal investigation with the Capitol Police so I'm not making this up here.

20 Burglaries...there was 20 Congressional office burglaries - so this isn't something that I dreamed up or anything. This has been widely reported that they kept a separate server and that they did these White House burglaries. 

Again, this is the most sensitive information in the country. The people they worked for, like Andre Carson sit on the foreign intelligence committee - and that could be very critical in the release of information from the Emerging Threats Subcommittee. This is where all the SEAL raids and drone operations happen. Homeland Security could be very interesting because if you had a network of spies or a network of people that you had with illegal social security numbers illegally running convenience stores in a drug network, in a drug rat-line, then knowing that Homeland Security was about ready to deport them would be very important so that you could move them into a sanctuary city.

AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

Also...from June 1, 2017, George Webb interviewed on the Richie Allen Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYaUj0Edfug&feature=youtu.be

From which I quote:
"The way the system worked and this constituent system that the Awans worked fed right into that. It was, I believe the same system that the Awans were working on. So, I’ve connected the Awans in Congress – these folks that have stolen 20 laptops when this was exposed – they stole the laptops and they stole the blackberries. I identified where they were keeping them in a Virginia home – in on e of the twelve homes that Imran Awan owned. This isn’t about something, you know, a conspiracy theory. We’re talking about I talked to a Marine who was living in the home and he said they had government markings on them. Imran said they were not his and he (Marine) called the FBI. The FBI came over and confiscated the blackberries and the laptops. This isn’t speculation. I went to that house, knocked on that door and talked to that Marine. So, if you watch Debbie Wasserman Schultz, she has a clip where she is threatening the Capital Police. The Capital Police have control of a chunk in the middle of DC that covers their jurisdiction. So, they were the ones who went over to the Longwood office building and confiscated these. I think they went to a couple of other ones as well. But, she’s threatening – Debbie Wasserman Schultz is threatening him three times to cut his budget. Then when he finally finishes his answer and says he’s not going to immediately turn over the blackberries and the laptops she threatens him with consequences. This is available. Anyone can go on the web and see this."

[Day 129 part 1 March 1, 2017]
The communications director for @capitolpolice Eva Malecki communications Director, what I would encourage everyone to do today is to tweet, "hows the Awan brother investigation going?" "How many different house reps were hit?" "what kind of stuff was stolen?" "Any arrests yet?" "Do we know if there was classified information stolen on the thumb/hard drives?"

*Why would this Marine call the FBI to report a stash of electronic equipment found in his rented house? He called NCIS because it looked like government stuff

Also note...Shortly after the criminal probe was revealed in February, Imran abruptly moved out of his longtime home on Hawkshead Drive in Lorton, Va., and listed it for rent on a website that connects landlords with military families.

George Webb discusses his interactions with this Marine, "Andre T", when Webb visited the rental home - and never states/implies/hints at - the electronic devices being damaged in any way . . . .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=357OdU0aICc&t=5m50s
Back on the 10th of April, George Webb visited that rental property located at 9667 Hawkshead Drive in Lornton, VA and posted this video report about that visit: Day 169.5 Hillary's Hackers, Awan Brothers Saga Deepens, Part 5 as well as actual video of his approach to this location at dusk. Day 169.6 Hillary's Hackers, Awan Brothers Saga Deepens, Part 6

Obstruction of Justice?!!
TruePundit: EXCLUSIVE: FBI Says ‘Awan Brothers’ Hard Drives Were Smashed After Confiscated As Law Enforcement Evidence

Reports of the FBI seizing computer hard drives form the home of the congressional IT director and aide of Florida Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz are accurate, according to FBI sources: with the exception of one major detail. The computer hard drives were not damaged when they were confiscated, FBI sources said.

The FBI, who is working in some capacity to assist with the Capitol Police on the Awan investigation, confirm the hard drives and other computer equipment have been damaged but are pointing the finger at the Capitol Police’s chain of custody with the evidence. The FBI, they said, would not damage evidence and stressed if someone went to the trouble of destroying evidence before a seizure they normally would discard of it as well, federal sources said.

Capitol Police officials would not respond to requests for comment.

AND MORE:

George Webb & Jason Goodman: Awan and a two
Rough Transcript:
George Webb: So, if you didn't follow the story - GatewayPundit, Mike Cernovich, InfoWars, DailyCaller, - they all had kind of derivative reports on the Daily Caller's Luke Rosiak saying the guy I met on the stairs that night, the Marine - they all quote the Marine, now - said that 'yes'. 'Not only was the one laptop, the one that Debbie Wasserman Schultz was talking about - but there was all these hard drives.
And - he did not - none of them reported the blackberries yet.
But I looked him 'right in the eye' and he said there was four or five laptops and about 20 blackberries in that cabinet out in the back. Right?
Now, the other interesting thing is he never said they were smashed
Jason Goodman: "Taggert?"
George Webb: "Taggert the Marine. No one still is reporting his name. Why are they suppressing Andre Taggart's name? I know the name of his wife - she's current Navy - and I didn't want to say her name to protect her identity. Why are they not releasing Andre Taggert's name?
Jason Goodman: "Why?"
George Webb: "Well, I have a good theory on that, but I'm not going to say it right now.
Anyway, the drives were not smashed at that time. They're admitting, the FBI's admitting now that they're in the case. Right? And, people are coming to me and saying 'hey, did you hear the FBI seized the smashed hard drives yesterday'?
They didn't seize the smashed hard drives yesterday. They did it 75 days ago (cross talk) when I reported on it. When they picked them up, they were in good condition and the FBI documentation will show that they were in good condition because Andre Taggert didn't say one word about the drives being smashed. The drives got smashed after they got into the hands of the Capitol Police. Bang.
Jason Goodman: "The Capitol Police smashed them?"
George Goodman: "Well, I don't believe that the Capitol Police smashed them at all. I believe the FBI smashed them. I believe that they were re-entered as evidence in the wacky raid on Huma Abedin's cousin's house in Michigan. They did a raid and are going to say 'oh, we got these hard drives there and they were smashed which about two months later, I think....
[skip forward]
to be continued

Jason Goodman: So, wait a second, when you went to Taggert's house he said that he gave the drives to the FBI
George Webb: Yes.
Jason Goodman: His wife was in Naval Intelligence or something - who did his wife work for?
George Webb: Yes. Wife worked for Naval Intelligence.
Jason Goodman: Ok, he gives them to the FBI. How did the Capitol Police get them?
George Webb: Because the FBI then referred it over to the Capitol Police because they were trying to keep the story quiet. They were trying to keep the Awan Brothers story quiet. McCabe was trying to put a lid on this thing so he put it over in the evidence cage over at the Capitol Police. The problem with doing this crap is you are going to create footprints. There's going to be all kinds of people at the evidence cage at the Washington Police, the Capitol Police are going to say 'the drives weren't actually smashed when they came in the evidence cage' .
Jason Goodman Well then why would he give up control of them at all? If he gave them to the FBI, why not just keep them?
George Webb: Again, you would have to answer the question at a press conference. "Do you have an FBI investigation going on right now about the Awan Brothers?" If you're the FBI chief and you just seized all these hard drives, do you have an investigation going on? You'd say 'no' - and that's exactly what they did say. Why? Because they put the drives over at the Capitol Police. That's exactly why. They were shunting this thing. They were covering this thing up from day one. They put the drives over there. Then, when we pushed the story, Debbie Wasserman Schultz said, 'you better give us the drives back.' Remember? They tried to make it look like one laptop. When that story came out a couple days ago, with the dumb smile on her face, two days ago...I was the first person to say - oh, by the way, I think everybody remembers, it's recorded...'oh, by the way, there's a hell of a lot more laptops. Because I looked Andre Taggert in the eye - AND - there's 20 more blackberries - at least 20 blackberries.
So, now they're trying to do the same thing again. They're trying to say, well, there really is no blackberries...AND...you can't really use the hard drive evidence cause they're smashed. Right? Like Hillary's blackberries were smashed.

FoxNews: FBI agreed to destroy laptops of Clinton aides with immunity deal, lawmaker says - Oct.3,2016

"The Republican chairman of the House Judiciary Committee fired off a letter Monday to Attorney General Loretta Lynch asking why the DOJ and FBI agreed to the restrictive terms, including that the FBI would destroy the laptops after finishing the search."

AWAN BROTHERS ON FOX NEWS WITH BRETT BAIER. Sr.Capitol Hill producer Chad reports. Brett asks if this is tied with the DNC hack. Chad reports he's been repeatedly shooed away when asking that question.

Check the transcripts- Rush was talking about the Awan Bros. today too!

****p.s. If Andrew Mccabe is looking into Awan Brothers then he must be investigating himself. WTH is Sessions?
