Arrest

1.Suspect in taxi driver murder arrested

     According to the article, “Orlando police offiers (officers) have made an arrest in the murder of taxi cab driver whose body was discovered near his cab on the morning of Janurary 12, 2011.” It would have been more appropriate for the story to state "in connection with the murder of.” In addition, the story violates AP rules when it comes to dates. January should have been abbreviated and the year shouldn't be included.

2.  Florida Cornerback Arrested

     The article used the word arrested in a way that did not violate AP style. No where in the story did I sense that Janoris Jenkins was being judged before a trial.

3.   Nebraska Man Arrested, Accused of Human Trafficking

     The story dealt with a complex crime that the reporter was attempting to explain.  The only problem I had with this story is the use of the word “accuser,” which labels the person making the claim.  That word connotes that the woman is fabricating the story.

4.  Mother Arrested for OVI with 4-year-old Daughter in Car

     The only thing that bothered me was the fact that the source wasn’t in the lede since this is a serious allegation against a person.

5.    Lake Hallie man arrested at Reno hotel.

      The brief did not violate AP rules on the word “arrest.”
