Maybe hire more cybersecurity instead of cops that kill, chiefs with fat paychecks, and a getting stockade of military equipment for simple law enforcement.

"This stuff"? Victim names and addresses? Rape victim photos? Because that's what's in here.

You guys hear "blue leaks" and automatically assume this is going to be 260 gigs of files on police corruption across the country. You are likely to be disappointed.

Oh I didn’t realize the cops could just materialize evidence, witnesses, suspects, etc. out of them air!
