46 or 47?

There are many reports suggesting that there were 46 arrested and not 47 in the Tulia drug arrests. 46 was the original number, but 47 eventually emerged as the more accurate figure. I went with 47, sourced from the book Tulia: Race, Cocaine, and Corruption in a Small Texas Town (ISBN 978-1-58648-219-0) by Nate Blakeslee , as the names of the arrested were listed.
