Important to note: The NTSB so far has listed no probable cause (the preliminary report is linked somewhere else in this thread.)

The phones were confiscated by the FBI, I'm not even sure how they are involved in such a request. The ship would be under maritime law so if anyone is handling the investigation and seizing devices wouldn't it be the CBP?

Maybe someone on this site knows more about maritime law and how this works?

The FBI has a maritime security program and this is quite literally a hit to critical infrastructure.
