The latest evidence brings the number of current and former workers apparently implicated in the snooping scandal to 68, the Los Angeles Times reported.

The additional violations came to light in a report by the California Department of Public Health, which was sent to the hospital Friday, according to the newspaper.

According to the new report, the administrator reviewed the records of actress Farrah Fawcett on 104 days between July 1, 2006, and May 21, 2007, The Times reported.
