One of the things about shooting someone, especially in a public place, is
that it's hard to take back the bullet once the damage is done, and you
discover you shot the wrong person.

People tend to remember things like that...

Yes, but I think the Original Poster has done as much as possible to try to
right his wrong. I imagine he was quite embarrassed when he discovered his
mistake but he do the right thing here.

At least for that he deserves congratulations....
