RawStory suggested that the court slammed the DOJ for indicting the wrong person, 'a rookie mistake', backing up that claim with a quote from an order that had absolutely nothing to do with the dismissal of the indictment, but was related to a discovery dispute in which the court found that the government's delay in providing discovery was unacceptable -- but then gave the government a 30 day extension and extended the speedy trial deadline over the objection of the defendants.

And the problem with RawStory is that its summaries of other news stories often are inaccurate -- as was the case in this instance where the stories it summarized made clear the "unacceptable" quote came from the order on the discovery issue.
