Misleading Photos
Hardly. It says "Foto: Archivo"
Which photo are you refering to?
[Here sloppy journalists usually use whatever photo they think has some relation to the story.]

Arbitrary Sentences
Often murder suspects get 3 months only...
This is another arbitrary and capricious act for which the Dominican justice system is famous for. :tired:
I now wonder what the accused 'gringos' get... :cross-eye

This bears posting so people can see what is happening here. Critical parts highlighted:
Sixteen U.S. citizens were held for questioning in the Dominican Republic following a raid on a home that authorities allege was being used for prostitution near a resort town in the north of the country, police said Thursday.
The U.S. citizens were detailed along with seven Dominicans at the home in an upscale community in Agua Clara near the beach town of Sosua, local police said in a statement. There were 29 prostitutes found at the home, including some under 18, it said.
None of those detained in the Wednesday raid were identified and prosecutors declined to comment, saying the investigation was still underway.
Prostitution is not specifically prohibited under Dominican law but is not technically legal either. Anyone who makes money off the services or uses the service of a prostitute can face charges of sexual exploitation.
Attorney General Francisco Dominguez said in 2013 that the country would crack down on widespread sexual exploitation and warned that clients of prostitutes could be prosecuted. Since then, authorities have prosecuted a handful of cases involving people, including several foreigners, who owned nightclubs dedicated to prosecution but not anyone for merely using the services of a prostitute.
I wasn't referring to the photo but to the name of the "proyecto turistico" Agua Clara (as marked in bold in my quote)
El Caribe ? Apresan en Sos?a a 16 estadounidenses
I assume that they are misnaming it by saying Agua Clara. There is a new development up that road called Agua Dulce. The houses in the photo look similar...... which made my previous statement incorrect, assuming at that time that it was Casa Linda.

There apparently is a development named Agua Clara. I noticed a billboard sign a couple of days ago for it heading toward Sosua near the entrance of El Choco. I'd not heard of it before, and the images on the sign weren't impressive.
This article shows the house in question....

Bottom line, was this a "bachelor party" gone bad, or an "Adult All-Inclusive" that did not pay off the right people???
