I am sure that I read the original of the article posted by WalkinMan this morning and it was the article that WalkinMan posted and not the article that we now find at this URL: http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/southflorida/sfl-1031detainees.story?coll=sfla%2Dhome%2Dheadlines.
In other words, I believe, but cannot 'prove' (since I did not make a copy of the original) that the piece has been re-written since WalkinMan made his post.
That said, note that WalkinMan's post (here) is marked as having been posted on FR 10/31/01 at 8:57 AM Pacific time while the article at the link in WalkinMan's post says it was posted October 31 2001, at 2:16 PM EST.
I believe that 2:16 PM EST is 11:16 AM Pacific time -- over two hours after WalkinMan made his post.
This indicates that the story was "updated" (re-written) since WalkinMan posted it to FR.
Please note that I am not disputing your hypothesis that we may have disinformation worker busy -- but the information I have strongly suggests that it is not WalkinMan.
