Correction: Iraq Rape Slaying story

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — In initial versions of an April 24 story about federal prosecutors seeking to compel witnesses to testify in the trial of an ex-soldier, The Associated Press reported erroneously that Sgt. Anthony Yribe had been convicted at court-martial for taking part in the rape and murder of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl. Yribe was never accused of being a direct participant. The story also erroneously reported that he pleaded guilty at court-martial to a related charge of failing to report the incident. According to federal court documents, the military dismissed charges against Yribe of dereliction of duty and making a false statement about the incident, and he was discharged from the Army.
