1. Specific, 2. General, 3. Specific, 4. General

Explanation:

1. Because they were trying to hide a certain fact, indicating that it is specific

2. Because it says "Employees" and it doesn't say how many of them, indicating a general noun

3. I'm guessing it says "two" so, it is specific because it talks about two certain people.

4. It's not indicating how many officers should be put in jail, meaning that it talks about a group of people.
