The location of the file in Resident Evil 2.
In Resident Evil 2, the file can only be obtained by Claire after visiting the S.T.A.R.S. office on the second floor of the R.P.D. for the first time. Upon attempting to leave the room, a fax machine in the office will ring and print the document.
Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles[]
In The Darkside Chronicles, the file is obtained during the Memory of a Lost City 6 scenario. After exiting the A-2 elevator, Leon and Claire will enter a hallway where they encounter an Ivy. Before turning the corner to the right, shoot the very last control panel on the left wall to reveal the file.
Transcript[]
Resident Evil 2[]
Mr. Chris Redfield
Raccoon City Police Dept.
S.T.A.R.S division
As per your request, we have conducted our internal investigation and discovered the following information:
1) Regarding the G-virus currently under development by Umbrella Inc.
So far it is unconfirmed that the G-virus even exists. We're continuing with our investigation
2) Regarding Mr. Brian Irons, Chief of Raccoon City Police Dept.
Mr.Irons has allegedly received a large sum of funds in bribes from Umbrella Inc. over the last five years. He was apparently involved in the cover up of the mansion lab case along with several other incidents in which Umbrella appears to have direct involvement.
Mr.Irons had been arrested under suspicion of rape on two separate counts during his years as a university student. He underwent psychiatric evaluation as a result of the charges but was released due to circumstantial evidence as well as his phenomenal academic standing.
As such, extreme caution is advised when dealing with him.

クリス･レッドフィールド殿
貴殿より依頼があった件につき、内偵した結果、以下のことが判明した。
（１） アンブレラ社が極秘に開発中のGウィルスについて。
現在のところ、Gウィルスなるものが存在するかどうかは判明せず。引き続き内偵を続ける。
（２） ラクーンシティ警察署長
ブライアン･アイアンズについて
署長ブライアン･アイアンズは、過去五年間に渡り、アンブレラ社から、多額の賄賂を受け取っていた疑惑あり。
恐らくアンブレラ社が引き起こしたと思われる洋館事件及び数々の不審な事件のもみ消し工作に一役買っていたと考えられる。
また署長は、大学時代、二度に渡り女子学生に乱暴を働いた疑いがあり、精神鑑定を受けたが、成績優秀のため不問に付されている。
以上のことから、今後は十分に注意をして行動されたし。

Further Notes[]
- To date, the version of the report in Resident Evil 2 is the only official translation to accuse Irons of rape. Information from the file has been used in the Brian Irons Profile found in Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles and the Brian Irons profile in The Darkside Chronicles, both of which instead citing domestic abuse against his wife during his college years, and the report itself when it reappeared in Darkside Chronicles also omits the paragraph detailing his rape charges altogether.
- Similarly, it is also the only file in the localized version of Resident Evil 2 to directly allude to Irons having a history of violence against women, as the file Secretary's diary A omits the gender of the subject of a painting in the third entry outside Japan.
- The file refers to itself as coming from the United States Federal Police Department. This is presumably a translation error, as no such organization exists (there are numerous federal law enforcement agencies). Likely, this was intended to represent the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
