Many state officials — including Gov. Janet Mills — have been mum following a Bangor Daily News report on Thursday of a lawsuit by a state trooper, George Loder, who alleged that he experienced employment discrimination after he told his supervisors that the Maine Intelligence Analysis Center was illegally gathering data on Maine residents. Protesters who opposed the Central Maine Power corridor, employees of a summer camp and people who legally purchased guns were among the groups that were illegally surveilled, according to the lawsuit.
