Clearance Request (IA8214299)
Discovery
November 30, 2007
Online participants badgered GPDIAD officer Glenn Barhyte (glenn.barhyte@gpdiad.com) with emails, receiving personalized replies. He was adamant about not being able to talk about the mob's connection to any police officers, but he mentioned a new document: IA8214299.
[sample email]
Look, like I've told your friends, I can't talk about LC6551, or IA8214299 for that matter. I don't know who's leaking these, but I'm sure going to try to find out.

Entering that document number into the SID, logged in as Karl Breitup, showed that Breitup (who is a lieutenant) did not have clearance to view that document.
However, online hackers were able to break into Glenn Barhyte's account in the SID, and found IA8214299, which detailed the investigation into corruption accusations against Jason McCree and Karl Breitup:
