The Sun screwed up the murdered woman's last name, it's McGhee without an 'a'. According to MD Judiciary Case search she'd been convicted of assault & child abuse, was delinquent on child support and had a warrant out for violating probation.
Hi pptain - the name was spelled correctly based on the information given by police initially. After being unable to find anyone in the country with that name, I pressed them to make sure it was accurate, and they later provided the new spelling, which is reflected in the most recent articles. As you may have noticed, these name mistakes happen fairly often, and due to human error, aliases, faulty court records, and a whole host of other reasons. -Justin

ReplyDeleteGotcha, I realize that "screwed up" was probably a harsh way to put it. Kudos on your writing from London BTW, that was a pretty interesting project.
