The spokesman is a 'hablador'.
Prosecutors do not set a suspect free, that is done by a judge.
BTW, any 'ladron' is given 3 months 'coerci?n' and murder suspects are let go?
The Dominican Republic is not a lawless country, but police, prosecutors and judges behave as if there were not any laws.
There is no hope for the foreseeable future....

i agree there is no hope. not for at least the next 10 generations. these guys are so corrupt that they don?t care what anyone else thinks. they know that anyone with a pulse can figure out that if a guy can go to preventive detention for being suspected of stealing a broom, then a guy should be liable for preventive detention in a murder case. however, highly placed officials in the DR know that nobody can do anything to them when they commit these heinous acts of aiding and abetting criminals, because there is no seperation between politicians and judiciary, and the system will always immunize them from the repercussions of their misdeeds. they know nobody can do anything to them.
the DR is lawless, because simply having statutes on books does not mean that there is law.
