Errata
and
Addendum
12/21/01
Our story last week on the failed lawsuit
against Narco News (http://www.drcnet.org/wol/215.html#narconews)
contained a typo in the name of the former Banamex chief who sued Narco
News. His name is Roberto Hernandez, not Fernandez.
In our story on British police chiefs calling
for prescription heroin for addicts, we incorrectly identified the author
of the Cleveland Report as Chief Constable Barry Straw QPM. The correct
name is Barry Shaw. We also misattributed a quote to him that should
have been attributed to another: The Cleveland Report did not call
British drug policy "ineffective" and "clearly based upon American experience."
Rather, that was a characterization of the report made by a British journalist.
Last week, we were unable to locate a copy
of the Cleveland Report. This week, however, we are pleased to note
it is accessible at http://user1.netcarrier.com/~aahpat/ukpol.htm
online.
