From the article in the OP:
"Upon discovery of this former employee's negligence in not conducting the further review required on 365 applications, we immediately completed full background checks on those 365 applications, which resulted in 291 revocations," Putnam said in the statement. "The former employee was both deceitful and negligent, and we immediately launched an investigation and implemented safeguards to ensure this never happens again."
NICS has a 94% false positive rate. So out of 275k requests (if I'm reading to article correctly) 291 were revoked and I'm curious what number of those was done "justly" so (also for what reason).

Regardless this is just a ccw license, something that isn't required in multiple states and a law that would never stop a criminal from carrying.
