ELMIRA, N.Y. — State police and the Elmira Police Department say a 26-year-old Elmira Police officer was arrested Wednesday after a months-long investigation into the unlawful release of confidential information.
State police say on July 22, they got a complaint from the Elmira Police Department about potential leaks of sensitive information.
In a statement from Chief Kristen Thorne of EPD, he says he was made aware on July 18 that an Elmira Police officer supposedly gave out confidential information to another person. They then suspended the officer and contacted state police to do a deeper investigation.
On July 31, state police say search warrants were executed at two locations and various electronic devices were seized, which later led to Shyonna Pacheco’s arrest.
Pacheco was charged Wednesday with hindering prosecution in the second degree, two counts of official misconduct, and two counts of obstruction of government administration in the second degree.

I grew up in Tioga County, NY but the Elmira area is where my parents came from - across the state line in PA - so my young years were spent in that area - visiting family, shopping, movies, family reunions at Eldridge Park. We were a farm family but our social life was there!
Last time I was there, was at the airport to catch a flight back to CA in 1970...
