Correcting the record

An article published Monday concerning state government travel expenses should have said eight, not 14, members of the Maine State Housing Authority staff went to a meeting in San Francisco last summer.

A story on Page A1 in the April 26 Bangor Daily News should have stated that Candace Newmaker, the child who died during a “rebirthing” therapy last year, was from Durham, N.C., where she lived with her mother, Jeane Newmaker. Also, the two therapists charged with reckless child abuse were convicted by a jury on April 20. They face a minimum of 16 years in prison and are scheduled to be sentenced June 18.
