Re: needed changes to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maureen_O%27Connor_(California_politician)

Hi...Haven't used the Wiki edit stuff for some time, and I'm unable now to go thru the basics, but I think that one change should be made asap to the Maureen O'Connor (American politician, San Diego) page, at the end of the introductory graph. There still is no formal source/reference -- just happened today in Dist. Court -- but the paragraph should conclude with this sentence:

The charges were formally dismissed by U.S. Dist Judge David Bartick Feb. 24, 2015.

I also see some incorrect or misleading statements in the original Wiki page, which I'll try to get to with sourcing when I can find time.

If someone could add that sentence to the end of first graph, it would be appreciated. My source is O'Connor, her lawyer, and other attendees of today's hearing. Should be verified later today by one or more San Diego media.

Thanks much.

Hi there. I'll add that to the article right now. Thanks for this important update. Regards, Swarm ^X 02:19, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
