She didn't accept that the premise was wrong, just that this particular detail was inaccurate:
"Wolf said she appreciated Sweet’s “important correction”, but rejected the idea that it challenged the main thrust of her book. “Outrages doesn’t purport to be a comprehensive database of eventual sentences served for sodomy,” she explained. “Its focus is on the reception of news about laws and sentences by a group of friends, as well as eventual arrests of friends of Symonds.”
