> As I understand it, "identified by law enforcement" was some guy in the Connecticut State Police talking to the media without authorization.

I don't see how somebody from the state police, talking to the media, saying "Ryan Lanza is the name on the driver's license" does not constitute being "identified by law enforcement".

It may have been "erroneously identified by law enforcement" but that does not make "identified by law enforcement" a false statement, no matter how much you want it to be.
