DR, Sudiksha Konanki, 20, Punta Cana, 6 March 2025 #2


A judge has issued the full ruling clearing Minnesota college student Joshua Riibe in the disappearance last month of Pitt student Sudiksha Konanki.
.....
The law firm that represented Riibe during his habeas corpus petition, Guzman Ariza, issued a statement saying that this week's update "does not constitute a new decision. The original ruling announced at the conclusion of the hearing on March 17 was immediately valid and enforceable."

The firm went on to explain, "The Court ordered Mr. Riibe's immediate release because he was unlawfully detained surpassing the maximum period of 48 hours permitted under the Constitution of the Dominican Republic and the Dominican Code of Criminal Procedure. According to these provisions, the Public Prosecutor's Office is required to file formal charges within 48 hours following an arrest or detention."
 
The problem is that news outlets prematurely reported that Riibe had returned to the US when he boarded his first flight to Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico is part of the United States. By extension, Puerto Ricans are US citizens.

Thus reports that, Riibe, by boarding a flight to Puerto Rico had simply "returned to the US." seem to be accurate.
