Can Police Read Text Messages That Have Been Deleted? Deleted text messages are usually retrievable from a phone, but before beginning the process, law enforcement officers would need to obtain a court order.
Do police have access to deleted text messages?
So, can police recover deleted pictures, texts, and files from a phone? The answer is yes—by using special tools, they can find data that hasn’t been overwritten yet. However, by using encryption methods, you can ensure your data is kept private, even after deletion.

Can text messages be traced after deleted?
When you move messages around or delete them, the data actually stays put. All you’re doing is telling the phone to point at the files in different ways. Deleting a message from the inbox, for instance, just tells the phone not to point to it any more when it’s listing the contents of that folder.
How far back can text messages be retrieved?
Most newer Android devices will let you view all your text messages but older models may limit you to viewing just the last 30 days’ worth of messages. In some instances, you can delete messages as old as 3 months. In some other carriers, you can go beyond 6 months.
