Federal Judge Says A Bartlesville Man Is ' Not Guilty'

           A verdict of 'not guilty' sets a Bartlesville man free. Alfredo Herrera
was jailed 16 months ago on drug charges, and held without bond. He was set
free Thursday night - after a federal judge looked at the facts and decided the
federal government didn't have evidence of a crime.

      News on 6 reporter Emory Bryan says the flag still flies outside the
Bartlesville home of Alfedo Herrera, who has lived the American dream. That
was, until July of 2004. "Overnight, everything turned from daylight to dark, a
nightmare, is what it was."

      Herrera came to America in 1965, started as a restaurant janitor and 30
years later owned a chain of restaurants. He branched out into a check cashing
business for Mexican-Americans, and helped them send money home to their
families.

      The business made him rich, but his arrest ended all that. This 61 year
old grandfather, outstanding businessman and naturalized American citizen, was
charged with money laundering and conspiracy.

      Federal prosecutors labeled him a drug kingpin, after digging through his
finances and concluding there must be a crime. For the last 16 months, Herrera
was jailed without charges.
