On Friday night we told you about Shanique Meighan. She's the sister of murder suspect Ellis Meighan - and her mother alleges she was arbitrarily detained under the SOE - to force her brother to turn himself in.
Well, after that story aired, on Friday night she became the first SOE detainee to be sent home. While other detainees will have to wait until this Friday for the SOE to expire, MeIghan got her free paper on Friday night.
In a written statement Meighan says that after being picked up and sent to prison in a bus with all males, she was placed directly in solitary confinement when she got to prison.
She says that on Friday, GI-3 officers arrived at the prison with a revocation order from the Minister of Home Affairs, indicating the state of emergency order under her name had been lifted. She concludes, quote, "It's concerning that without my family's advocacy and media attention to my situation, I might still be detained."
