It appears that the list included things like the home address of the Chief Justice of the VA State Supreme Court.

I imagine their 'legal issues' are just beginning.
One of those who wrote in their comments section thanked the columnist (sarcastically, I presume) for exposing them to Islamic Jihad and Hamas, who now have their home address if they used the database.
Others made similar comments in re: abusive ex spouses, gang members, etc.
Someone is quite possibly in deep litigational doo-doo.

That made them a lot of friends in high places.
