 In 2007, an article in the "American Psychologist" found "no evidence for the presence of 38 witnesses, or that witnesses observed the murder, or that witnesses remained inactive".In 2016, "The New York Times" called its own reporting "flawed", stating that the original story "grossly exaggerated the number of witnesses and what they had perceived".Winston Moseley, a 29-year-old Manhattan native, was arrested during a house burglary six days after the murder.
