Five years and over a dozen stories later, a correction

An article on Oct. 20 about the reversal of David Lemus's conviction in the 1990 killing of a bouncer at the Palladium nightclub in Manhattan misspelled the given name of his co-defendant, who had also been cleared. (The error, which is in the indictment, also appeared in more than a dozen articles on the case from 2000 to 2005.) He is Olmedo Hidalgo, not Olmado. An article on Aug. 20 about the dismissal of charges against Mr. Hidalgo misstated the timing of a judge's reversal of his conviction. That took place on July 29, not on Aug. 19. These errors were discovered last week during research for an article on later developments. Link
