> how do i know if the article is real? because the victim, the police, and journalists who have researched the issue have all corroborated the facts. All that info is brought to you by the media, who themselves mostly reprint ap and Reuters prepared news. There is very little corroborating or verifying going on. If you have ever been involved in a news story, or have expertise in a subject matter, you will soon realise that the media presents a interpretation of events that need not relate very closely to reality.
