Hackers linked to the World Leaks extortion gang stole and published LAPD-related files from a Los Angeles City Attorney digital storage system, not the core LAPD networks. The leak reportedly includes personnel files, internal affairs cases, discovery materials containing unredacted complaints, witness identities, medical data, and approximately 7.7 TB across 337,000 files.
