In an Oct. 30 story about the workers’ compensation case of an aide to a former state attorney general, The Associated Press erroneously reported that the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation issued a ruling of attempted fraud. The former aide, Anthony Gutierrez, previously pleaded guilty to attempted workers’ compensation fraud in a criminal case. The state bureau found that he misclassified workers at his construction business, but the agency did not address any questions of intent.
