Headline check
One of the two things this headline claims is not in the report.
- The headline puts “violated” in quotation marks. Nobody says those words anywhere in the report.
Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. How this is checked
A summary of ABC News’s report. The score is for the full 1115-word report.
