reason
The headline's retrospective arrest reference supports a reported arrest, with no new date. Original authored interpretation: Own headline retrospectively refers to arrest; no new enforcement date or guilty-person adjudication. Original stage: reported_retrospective. Original scope: single_case. Whole row limits: Lastweek relative, no country/year/amount or financial mechanism inferred from episode number/publisher.
These labels describe the available reporting. “Not reported” does not mean a harm did not happen. A theme's stage applies to that statement, not every claim in the article.
Retrospective podcast headline reports arrest, not a conviction.

Connected reporting
Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.
The exact episode4 title and complete saved presentation support the same podcast/media work across the Montreal and Quebec copies. Its unnamed retrospective arrest and generic judicial/police category do not identify a unique underlying crime or a concrete new court event. No audio was played; matching work descriptions are not independent corroboration.
A page can change after it first appears. Observation dates record when its URL was seen; they do not prove that the wording assessed here was present on every date.
