  1. The "jeremy dyson" that was arrested was not 30 years old!!! This guy was only 22 and now because of media, such as yourselves, the "30 year old Jeremy Dyson" has to try and explain to his family and friends that it WASN'T him. Shame on you for reporting this FALSE information. Please agologize to 30 year old Jeremy and make the correction to your story. He deserves at least that much.......!
    Thank you,
