The release follows days of inaccurate reporting about the case and sloppy detective work by Internet amateurs spearheaded by the Reddit forum r/findthebombings. Both Reddit and The New York Post zeroed in on two young men who later turned out to be innocent. ABC news identified one as Salah Barhoun, 17, a high school track star from Revere, Mass., who attracted the Internet and the New York Post’s attention solely, it seems, because of his brown skin.
