You can acknowledge that our investigation is ongoing. SONY has been in contact with Paris, and my understanding is that Paris has stated to them that Paris will not guarantee that our victims' information will be confidential. For obvious reasons, this would be detrimental to our ongoing investigation. The release of documents would include victim information?
