Did I just read that?

I don't think Fox News believes in copy editors:

FIRST line of a story:

"Elizabeth Smart told her kidnapper that she will have a good life despite what he did to her moments before he was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison in the Salt Lake City, Utah federal court."Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/05/25/elizabeth-smart-tells-kidnapper-shell-live-good-life-moments-gets-life-sentence/#ixzz1NPW9reJx

What exactly did he do right before they sentenced him?

Now we'll play "Spot the misplaced apostrophe." Hint:  it isn't in a place where people usually get confused, like its/it's.
Second sentence: "Smart, who spoke briefly in court, told Brian David Mitchell that she know's he knew what he did to her was wrong."
