If someone was blocked, you cannot see messages they sent during the time they were blocked. Once a person is blocked, the communication line is essentially cut off, preventing any new messages from being delivered or visible. To see messages sent during the block period, you would need to unblock the person. However, messages sent while blocked typically do not retroactively appear; any communication attempted during the block period is usually lost or not delivered.
