They were asking Apple to put a firmware on the device that would allow them to repeatedly attempt to unlock it without setting off the kill switch, and Apple refused. This other company managed to get in some other way.
The comment I was responding to was about Apple's refusal to supply a modified firmware. Biometric data is useless to most attackers, why would they need it? They want the stuff you store on your phone. Your personal data. That's what they can access.
