I do tend to think that, given the amount of negative media coverage about the DR that this case has generated - mostly incorrect - people at the top must be delighted that they are finally shot of this lady. I've been reading a lot of what the family has been saying, and it seems that bail has been reduced and reduced and reduced. A few weeks ago the family were appealing for help with over ?140K, finally they paid ?62K. As others have pointed out, she has been tried and found guilty but the authorities are still happy to accept bail money. I know that money talks here, but this has been a very high profile case, the Dominican ambassador to the UK has been summoned to explain why she is being held, and even the Prime Minister has been involved. Don't tell me that people in very high positions here haven't said "just get some money off her and send her home" to delete this problem.
It seems that this lady has quite a lot of history relating to alcohol and from what was reported in the Dominican press as well as the court case, alcohol seems to have played quite a large part in the accident in which her husband was killed. The last thing Nicole should be doing is drinking alcohol, let's hope this whole story has taught her something.
