The meta-media is all atwitter about a joint story between the Ottawa Citizen and Globe and Mail (also: National Post, Victoria Times-Colonist) about a con artist who got himself into witness protection (despite his information being fictional) and eventually killed someone using his new identity. Except, because of the witness protection rules, they can’t give any details about the murder or his life after entering the program.

Despite that nagging absence, the story still reads like a Law & Order story.
