...the entire 46 pounds of detailed and itemized phone records...

Why did she weigh it?

I'd bet that she sells many of them one at a time.

Probably because measuring phone records by poundage gives guilty imaginations more fodder. Saying "I'll release the last 10 years of phone records" is just a number. Saying "I have 50 pounds of paper with details" makes people "see" that pile of paper in their mind, and start imagining what's on those pages.
