March 22, 2016 U.S. Says It May Not Need Apple's Help to Unlock iPhone ------------------------------------------------------- The Justice Department has said it may not need Apple's help to unlock an i Phone used by a suspect in the San Bernardino, California, shooting rampage. Apple has publicly refused to unlock the i Phone, saying it would create a backdoor the government could use against other phones. But a hearing in the case scheduled for today has been postponed after the government said it has been approached by an outside party with a possible means of unlocking the i Phone. Topics:FBI .
