    Solution

    Replace BREAK with BROKE as same tense should be used throughout the sentence. PAST tense is being used throughout. Thus, broke will be used instead of break. It would have been a travesty of justice if the newspaper and the reporter who broke the story were treated as accused in the case where the charges include cheating under impersonation.
