 "Family Terrorized After FOX News Wrongly ID's Them As Terrorits"

 La Habra, Calif

A California couple whose home was wrongly identified on FOX News as belonging to an islamic radical has faced harassment since the report aired Aug 7. The backlash has been serious enough to warrant police protection.

Family members have been targets of profanities, threats, and false accusations. The word "terrorist" has been spray painted on their property.

Former Federal Prosecutor John Loftus, who has his own segment on FOX, gave out the address during a broadcast.

Loftus said, the home belonged to a man with ties to last month's london bombings. But in fact, the man had moved out of that home three years ago.

FOX said, Loftus has been reprimanded. Loftus himself told the Los Angeles Times last week that, "Mistakes Happen" he said, "That was the Best Information we had at the Time."

hmmm, get someone killed or ruin their lives and it's 'mistakes happen'...that Cowboy needs to leave the matter in law enforcement hands. he's nothing more than a vigilante at this point.
