They may have transferred some of them to other people. I assume some texts or batches of texts exist outside of the prosecutor's office. Also, transcriptions of certain texts are in the motion to dismiss. Just a thought, or two.
Don't know the answer to your question, but I was just trying to explain why various people outside of the prosecution and defense, and senders and recipients, might have seen some of the texts.
