PHILIPSBURG - Erno Labega Jr.  who was arrested on Thursday February 11th, was released from police custody last week.

Labega who is represented by Brooks and Associates was released because there was not enough evidence to hold him.

Chief Prosecutor Hans Moss who initially confirmed the arrest stated that he was suspected of being involved with the transportation of cocaine to the United States.

However prosecutor Reink Mudd stated on Thursday that the Judge did not believe that there was enough evidence to warrant his further detention.

More from Prosecutor Mudd can now be heard via PodCast.

News again   |200.7.58.xxx |2010-02-26 00:07:45 Please stop making mention of E.L. as news. I do not see what he was arrested and suspected as a big thing. Others do worst things and do not end up being news worthy. But I have seen when you have a certain last name or your family is high up in society, I have noticed the police and especially the Prosecutors are out to nail them. Please...... EL is no news for whoever wants to make news or promotion. Take that laughing face of this person off your website. He is a nobody and a number. Remember that. Reply 0   0

An Experienced Victim   |80.60.193.xxx |2010-02-26 01:27:11 They arrest you on suspicion, or simply because someone file a false but credible complaint against you...then expect you, while innocent behind bars to provide them with proof and evidence against yourself...confessing to stuff they try pin on you...so they could take you to court and secure a conviction. Now creating an angry person with a police record....prepared this time to really do a crime. Reply 0   0

Yeah   |200.7.62.xxx |2010-02-26 03:02:23 The prosecutors are making criminals out of non criminals by accussing and convicting you for things you did not do. Yeah promotion for them, even if it is false convition. Talk about falsely convicted persons here on this island. Especially in DNA cases. Families should try to obtain the DNA that the prosecutors have. Do they know what DNA is anyway. This is needed in certain cases. We are just slaves anyway. Just like what News said. They are the masters. Poor we.... country status while we are still slaves of the European Dutchman Reply 0   1

get real   |200.7.37.xxx |2010-02-26 04:44:00 What the forks (lack of better word) is wrong with you people one minute you all want the police to do there jobs, BUT when it happen to be a friend or a family of some of you then they are not doing there jobs correctly. That is what wrong in St. Maarten, some may do and get lock up for it and other do the same crime and they most get away with it because they family name is high on society list. Labaga families high up in society my ass they got there by who they know and who they can bribe. But watch out times are changing Reply 0   0

Unfair   |72.252.9.xxx |2010-02-26 04:53:41 Well, the suspect was fully named the next day as he was detained. Yet it took a whole week after his release to tell that part of the story. MMMMMMMMMMM. Wow, the media biases continue. Reply 0   0

Attitude Change!   |72.252.9.xxx |2010-02-26 10:40:13 to "get real" were you bribed by a Labega? I know many Labegas and they are decent, kind and generous people. You sound like politics is fuming from your mouth. Get a life! How many no-name, well-name, no-like, pretty, ugly people are locked up and release and nobody hear anything. So stop. Elections are over. Reply 0   0

j. richardson   |72.252.10.xxx |2010-02-26 10:50:03 labega's never had to bribe , they were born with all what they have and they never had to beg nobody. why dont all you all negative people start writing your real names. people buy property from Labega's heritage to become somewhere.alot did. government did not give labegas what they have, they born and meet it in their family. some of you foreigners so stupid.

last word   |200.7.52.xxx |2010-02-27 13:53:17 I think you all should stop critizing each other of who have what and who was born with what unfortunately you labega's have the golden spoon in your mouth, but the police have a job to do if he was that innocent then his name would not have been mentioned. If he respect his parents for who they are his little a....... would not have spent days locked up. And this is for everyone rich or poor the law enforcement officers are there to protect and serve so don't blame them. Reply 0   0
