Yes we do, it's in the second paragraph of the article.

"The F.C.C. recently closed its 17-month inquiry into the project, Street View, with a finding that Google broke no laws but had obstructed its investigation."

Even if we didn't, that's also a reason for not disclosing this person's identity: innocent until proven guilty.
