Why would anyone take someone to the police station .? This whole story makes no sense...If someone takes a thief to the station and reports it they just let them go.?..If the people that took this thief to the station could not do anything once they brought him/her there why bother...??? I understand that the person that took him was not robbed but wouldnt the police at least take a report and then arrest him once these girls came in? That is exactly whats wrong with Roatan...Roatan needs to come clean with these poor excuses...Your island deserves better... karen Arlea Igoe wrote: 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. --- westbaylodge wrote: > > Thank you for this clarification.
