Suspect in school camp tragedy released on bail, but judge warns: 'You are under a magnifying glass'
Three months after the June 11 traffic accident in Vogelwaarde that killed three children and their school director, a Dutch court decided to release the 20-year-old suspect, R.J., pending trial. The decision caused outrage among victims' relatives present in the courtroom. Judge imposed strict conditions including a driving ban, mandatory treatment, and drug monitoring, warning that any violation would result in immediate imprisonment. While the prosecution argued for continued detention citing reckless driving and prior offenses, the court cited standard procedures allowing suspects to await trial in freedom. A subsequent hearing is scheduled for December 17.
