Mea culpa! Mea maxima culpa!
For readers who were following a breaking story about a security guard at the Mandalay Bay Hotel had been arrested in connection with the Las Vegas massacre, I regret to inform you it was a hoax.
The story, which ran in our Web Crawler section, has been pulled.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
According to J.E. Dyer, who made me aware that the item (which is still live here) was a phony, noted that the perpetrators changed the name of the security guard from Jose Campos to Jose Compos. That appropriately is a letter short of compost.
I apologize for the misinformation and promise to try to do better.
