Paragraph from article:
Death was a way of life for Gilles Montmorency-Laval, Baron de Rais, who rose as one of France’s war heroes only to become one of itsmost notorious villains. Long believed to be a sadistic child murderer, historians are revisiting his story to seek what truth lies beneath the tales of his monstrous cruelty in 15th-century France.
My question is, in this paragraph the modifier "Long believed ....murder" used correctly or wrong??
Because i think it is modifying Historians rather than modifying the G M L..
If it is wrong.. Should I stop reading this resource for GMAT verbal prep..

You're right, that is indeed a misplaced modifier ... and particularly ugly, too, since it concerns child molesting.
It's probably the result of an editing error, but it would make me question the quality of this source.
