Totally screwed up article, first it says it was a man, then it states that "she" withdrew funds, and then it mentions a Boy Scout Pack.

We live in an era of instant online news.  

Unless you're on a professional news site like nyt.com or wsj.com, you shouldn't be surprised that articles aren't researched, fact-checked, or edited for consistency and grammatical correctness. 

Quality is not the hallmark of today's newspaper alternatives.

My mom was a reporter for the old Chicago Tribune and Boston Globe. A woman reporter?  Yep, until she married.... 

Check it before it goes to the compositor.   Not any more, just get it out and fill the band width....
