Since Friday of last week the growing controversy over an apparent bogus report from Connecticut indicating that 250 peace officers had signed an open letter stating they would not enforce the state's new gun laws has reached a fever pitch.
Some have outright labeled the story as a hoax, a rumor, a fabricated tale designed to dupe supporters of gun rights. As the Examiner has stated repeatedly, if concrete verifiable evidence can be provided proving such charges, then the story will be retracted. The Examiner has also provided updates to the story to indicate there is reason to doubt it's source -- a Tyson Jackson -- and the existence of a "Connecticut Peace Officers' Association."
However, we have further indicated that even if the author is using a fictitious name and even if there is no such Peace Officers' group in Connecticut, the facts contained in the story are true and have already been verified repeatedly.
