The Air Force announced on Friday that it has lost thousands of records belonging to the service's inspector general due to a database crash.
"We estimate we've lost information for 100,000 cases dating back to 2004," Air Force spokeswoman Ann Stefanek told The Hill in an email.
"The database crashed and there is no data," Stefanek said. "At this time we don't have any evidence of malicious intent."
The database, called the Automated Case Tracking System (ACTS), holds all records related to IG complaints, investigations, appeals andFreedom of Information Act requests.
