INVESTIGATION CONTINUES: Concord police continue to investigate circumstances around the Local Government Center’s handling of data on 100,000 public workers for whom it handles benefits.

LGC denied access to records about the incident to the State Employees Association saying in a letter, “it has the potential to impair the open police investigation.”

The two sides disagree on the seriousness of the incident. SEA calls it an “alarming situation.” LGC said that view is based on “rumor and misinformation.” It said “no information was taken or misused,” based on findings by a digital forensics expert.
