An investigation has been launched after court files concerning the victims, survivors, and families of the Southport attack were accessed without authorisation. The parents of the victims expressed they are devastated by the data breach, describing the individuals responsible for the illegal access as despicable. They have called for those involved in the breach to lose their jobs following the unauthorised access to sensitive information regarding the victims and their grieving families during the legal process.
