Retraction

In our commentary headlined “Southampton Town Police Investigation Proceeds” on page 97 of the May 25, 2012, issue of Dan’s Papers, we wrote about police officer Eric Sickles. Our story, which was based primarily on a report in The Independent, stated that Mr. Sickles was the subject of an investigation into allegations that he was involved in selling and buying drugs. According to The Independent’s report, however, the investigation concerns allegations that Mr. Sickles may have been under the influence of drugs, not that he was dealing drugs.
