Eloisa Calderón, a member of the facility’s cleaning crew, recovered the phone and hours later handed it over to her supervisor. Before doing so, however, Calderón, a Guatemalan immigrant, forwarded various of its contents to news agencies who were, according to insiders, bored to tears by Ryan’s instant messages with family, friends and colleagues.
This reporter obtained a copy of several messages from Ryan’s Iphone, which are reproduced in their entirety below:
