Investigation notes
Chester County Probation Parole and Pretrial Services DUI Program is a government-affiliated agency responsible for the supervision and rehabilitation of individuals involved in the judicial system for DUI-related offenses. Given the nature of their operations, the agency typically collects and maintains highly sensitive personal information, including legal records, criminal history, Social Security numbers, and detailed behavioral health or substance abuse assessment data. This breach was officially reported to the New Hampshire Attorney General in 2025, and the agency has begun issuing formal data breach notification letters to all impacted individuals. If you have received such a letter, it indicates that your personal information was potentially compromised while in the agency's custody, and you should review the provided instructions carefully to protect your identity.
