It appears that you may have been the victim of alieanation of privacy or other tortious behavior. If the information was purposefully or negligently diseminated to the non-essential person(s), alters the case you may have. Hopefully there are no further dispersals going on. If so, make sure you bring it to the attention of the potential employer at the highest level you can reach. If they have notice of the information leak and then it continues, that boosts your claim.

I am sorry to hear that this happened to you.

Good Luck
