    My original post did not cast aspersions on anyone
    involved in capturing the thief or those who took him
    to the station and no one should think that was the
    intent. Those that helped and caught the kid were all
    tourists and private citizens of Roatan and should be
    and were thanked for their help. The girls were not
    told to go to the police station right at that time or
    they would have. They did go the next day however and
    that's when they learned the kid had been let go.
    Having been there and had 1st hand knowledge of what
    happened up to the point of the kid being turned over,
    my statements were true. What happened after the kid
    was turned over was the info given us by the girls who
    were robbed and did go to the police station the next
    day. They just wanted those of us involved in helping
    them to know the rest of the story.
