A short while ago we reported that the two reporters who broke the story of the allegedly falsified records of that volunteer sheriff’s deputy had abruptly resigned from The Tulsa World. What’s more, the Executive Editor of the paper declined to say that the paper was standing behind the blockbuster story. Now we’ve heard from the reporters in question that they left to work at a new local news website and that their departure had nothing to do with that story. We’ve updated our story and you read the update here.

Still leaves a pretty big mystery about why the paper won’t say it still stands behind the story.
