Yikes! Newspapers need to be held responsible for the damage they can do to a person's life and reputation. Make sure you have the facts straight before you decide to publish a juicy article that could destroy someone's life. That said she still maintains he did something so maybe he did but it sounds like not exactly what the paper accused him of.
