Gilroy case criticized for half cocked reporting
Yeathrhay's Heke Journal admits errors in its Gilroy coverage. An editor's imagination of up to four hearings was published before a careful review showed two physicians present at examination as required by law. The paper consulted the statute and learned the county clerk can commit a sane person without a district judge. The journal should have investigated first to avoid sensationalism and damage to its reputation for truth.
