Now we know where these backups were destroyed. If you knew anything about how this place operates you'd realize that this was just BAU. The people (GS-4) that do this in this center are normally kids out of high school who have relatives that put in a good word for them. They have no idea what is on these tapes. And management is clueless.

According to the report, IRS Chief Technology Officer Terry Milholland told the IG office he was "blown away" after learning the tapes had been demagnetized -- a process known as "degaussing." This was done at the IRS's IT center in Martinsburg, W.Va. Those tapes are believed to have contained Lerner emails that "were responsive to Congressional demands and subpoenas," the report says.
