Easy to confuse ‘jive’ and ‘jibe’

A local attorney/prosecutor was quoted in your Wednesday edition about a criminal suspect’s version of events as saying “… and that just does not jive with forensic evidence.”

If the prosecutor was misquoted, he deserves a correction/apology from the Times Free Press. If he was not misquoted, he should consider reviewing his word usage. The correct way to describe that suspect’s version of events is it does not “jibe” with forensic evidence. Calvin Calhoun Ooltewah
