Let's be real here. The only "bureaucratic mistake" here is an agent filling out a form improperly in a way that victimized someone. Everything that happened after that is both deliberate and malicious.
If a mistake was made, it should be easy to correct and not be followed by years of fighting to not only keep it from being corrected but to keep it a secret. They've successfully kept most of it a secret, even though the direct victim had their suffering eased.
The indirect and ultimate victims of this, our individual rights and society's ideals, are still suffering.
