“A few stakeholders were concerned that the release of the report would result in new legal action (criminal prosecution, citizen revocation, or otherwise) being brought against the individuals named in the report,” a summary of the library’s discussions noted.

What a good argument. Can't find any fault with that logic. Let's just get rid of laws that hold people accountable for their actions. Wouldn't want murderers, or war criminals to be inconvenienced in any way and it wouldn't be fair to embarrass the government for looking the other way or being complicit.
