As I have posted elsewhere, I'm going to wait to see how things play out. IIRC, the District Attorney has 72 hours to press charges after an arrest is made. We'll see then how things stand. I can also tell you from personal experience that being arrested on a Friday is another police tactic. It's a pain being held over a weekend when it's harder to reach anyone in the court system and the jail scales back a bit on staff. It makes the person being incarcerated more frustrated and can sometimes lead to them saying things they otherwise would not. Most of the time, too, unless Hernandez' attorney is a great persuader, he'll be in over the weekend waiting to see a judge on a bail hearing.
When I was arrested it was a Friday afternoon of a three-day weekend. I had to wait in the jail until Tuesday to get a bail hearing before a judge and be released. I was arrested driving a friend's car to the store for him. It turns out that he had several warrants outstanding and the cops thought that I was him. Even though I had both my driver's license AND my VA card with me, they took me in and it was almost two weeks before the charges were dropped when they realized that I wasn't him. But that's another story.
I'm not jumping on the Hernadez-is-done bandwagon just yet. I'm gonna wait and see how things play out first. That's what we are supposed to do for our fellow citizens. Assumed innocent until proven guilty.
