Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary Jim Nicholson told a House Veterans Affairs Committee hearing today that the missing laptop computer and hard drive containing up to 26.5 million veterans' personal information have been found.
The deputy attorney general told him that law enforcement officials have the laptop and hard drive, Nicholson said. The serial numbers match," he added.
There have been no reports of identity theft since the May 3 burglary at the home of the VA employee who took the laptop home, Nicholson said.
A committee staffer said June 28 that the employee, whom he would not name, brought work home with him regularly.
