Claim 1: “On Aug. 8, 2024, Jose Miranda was randomly, brutally hacked to death with a meat cleaver at a Bronx laundromat”
DISPUTED
The claim states Jose Miranda was the victim. However, the evidence from multiple web sources specifies that the victim was a 'shop owner' and the person arrested/charged for the meat-cleaver attack at the 303 Laundromat on August 8, 2024, was Clarence Woodward. There is no evidence that Jose Miranda was the victim; rather, the evidence describes the perpetrator as Woodward.
