A security and privacy researcher at Indian University, Christopher Soghoian, found an affidavit filed by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) requesting to unlock an Android phone.

The FBI wanted access to the phone of Dante Dears, the reported leader of “Pimpin’ Hoes Daily” street gang. The FBI’s Regional Computer Forensics Lab couldn’t get past the “pattern lock.” If you try too many false patterns, you lock the phone’s memory, which can then only be unlocked with a user’s Google account password and username.

Google replied, “Like all law abiding companies, we comply with valid legal process. Whenever we receive a request we make sure it meets both the letter and the spirit of the law before complying. If we believe a request is overly broad, we will seek to narrow it.”
