McInerney Factory-Reset His Work iPhone at ICAC

Dallas McInerney factory-reset his work iPhone at ICAC in Sydney. He factory-reset the iPad as well and handed both devices back wiped. Catholic Schools NSW had not asked McInerney for those phones. McInerney told the commission he knew what he was doing. He said the factory reset is a factory reset like that counted as full honesty. The bank never told McInerney to factory-reset anything. He never consulted lawyers or his employer before hitting reset. Counsel assisting called McInerney's action a transparent attempt to destroy evidence. The board sacked him on Friday after losing all confidence. McInerney treated the "I knew what I was doing" line like it washed everything clean. He handed the commission the wiped iPhone. The empty iPad sat on the ICAC table.
