Editor’s note: This letter references a comment posted on DailyLobo.com on the story “Woman dies at Camp Coyote,” published in Tuesday’s paper.
Editor,
I would like to pay my condolences to the friends and family of Stephanie, who passed away at Camp Coyote on Saturday night, as well as to the (Un)Occupy Albuquerque community. Losing a community member is always a devastating occurrence on our campus that is both tragic and heartbreaking.
Yesterday, I was informed that I was erroneously quoted in the online comments of the Daily Lobo website. My name has been used in an entirely fabricated quote. While I feel that the comments section of the Daily Lobo is an excellent way for students to voice their valuable opinions, I would like to stress that actual quotes and comments from me are available through official press releases from the GPSA office, on the GPSA website and in official interviews with reporters. I hope that my peers and fellow Daily Lobo readers will understand the nature of the false accusation, and I look forward to continuing to work together to strengthen the UNM community.
Katie Richardson
GPSA President
