Former county prosecutor Rick Romley is calling on county and state authorities to investigate Doug Logan's refusal to release his communications.

Thousands of redacted texts. Missing messages. Gaps in exchanges. Records show the Cyber Ninjas CEO continues to withhold communications related to the Arizona"audit" more than a year after a judge ordered him to make them public.

Romley, a Republican, said this is not a partisan issue. He pointed to statutes that make it a crime for anyone who knowingly"conceals, removes or otherwise impairs the availability of any public record" with the intent to"defraud or deceive." "The most obvious case is the failure to obey court orders," Romley said."But the text messages themselves raise the specter that there could be corruption here."

Romley, who held the office longer than any other county attorney, said the explanation doesn't make sense. Both the Attorney General's Office and the County Attorney's Office have the ability to initiate their own investigations and bring criminal charges without a formal referral or complaint from a law enforcement agency, he said.

"Doug Logan continues to obfuscate and obstruct," said Larry Moore, the founder of Boston-based election technology company Clear Ballot Group. "He has not only hidden messages, he has eliminated them."The Audit Guys Their messages continue regularly from June to September 2021, then stop days before Logan delivered a report on his findings to the Senate on Sept. 24, 2021.

The Audit Guys include Benny White, a prominent Pima County Republican data analyst, and Tim Halvorsen, Clear Ballot's retired chief technology officer. Their stated mission:"To debunk election disinformation and confront those who would use their power to spread it."Logan for two years has defied court orders to turn over records of his communications, and on June 21, 2023, he made another attempt to block the public from seeing them.
