GBI Review: No Security Breeches of Vital Records

A Georgia Bureau of Investigation review of the State Office of Vital Records is in. State officials were concerned about security breeches after the chief of the office, Richard Wheat, was fired last month for his “gross mismanagement and a lack of professional integrity.” According to the GBI review there were no breeches and Wheat was just disorganized about records. The vital records office handles certificates of birth, death, marriage and divorce.
