Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

My current employer provided false information to a background investigator in regards to my attendance. Not only did they violate their own employee privacy policy but they cost me a career as well.(I was applying to a sheriffs office-, according to their HR its improbable to get a second chance once info is out there even if I could produce proof) My employer utilizes stall tactics whenever I request to see my own attendance records and according to SEVERAL other employees this company has been negligent with their attendance as well. **This company says that they purge attendance every 6months, which is also a concern seeing how I've yet to see any physical proof on their behalf of statements made against me. This has to be illegal right? Is there anything I can do about this, short of quitting, I still have bills to pay? I have a copy of the over-the-phone interview with my jobs personnel office if that matters)

Who is the current employer? Maybe a lawyer letter will get them to send the matter over to their counsel and the issues could be hashed out.
