FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUESTS RESULT IN UNEXPECTED INFORMATION.

 
JAKE BLEED - DFA COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR


Thanks to the incompetence of Jake Bleed, the Director of Communications for the Department of Finance & Administration, many ABC employees and vendors (including the individuals used in illegal sting operations) had their Social Security numbers, dates of birth, driver's license numbers, and home or mailing addresses provided to us in response to a Freedom of Information request.

This was surprising, in that this information is not subject to release under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act.

Bleed is also a fairly recent law school graduate and should know better.

We complied a list of the prohibited information and sent it to DFA and to ABC Enforcement agents.  



THE FILE WE SENT TO THE ABC AGENTS DID NOT HAVE THE PINK STRIPS



Several agents contacted us and told us that Bleed nor anyone at DFA or ABC advised them that their information had been released. 

Bleed also provided copies of un-redacted forms (agreements, W-2's, payroll, etc) that listed names, SSN's and mailing addresses.

This is the actual list of names and vendor numbers Bleed provided to us.








This is not the first time Bleed has goofed up.

Last year he provided us with the names of individuals that the ABC uses in their illegal sting operations.

  
 Is the Department of Finance & Administration going to provide credit monitoring services to the individuals that had their personally identifiable information released or an apology?

Probably not.

We will have some of the un-redacated reports from their illegal sting operations in upcoming stories.  Stay tuned.
