Supported complaints were corroborated by evidence discovered during the investigation. Unsupported complaints were not supported by evidence. Unfounded complaints were determined to have no basis. Complaints were filed against correctional officers, police, tax assessors, the Department of Development and Environmental Services, the Department of Facilities Management, and other agencies.
