JOG,
It appears that rereading it slowly didn’t much help you to actually understand what was being said, and why. And, you didn’t read it in its entirety, either. Too many words for you to handle all at once, eh? That’s too bad.
It also looks like you might want to work on improving your reasoning skills, as well.
Hint: While it could indicate that charges were dropped, the release of an arrestee from custody usually has more to do with whether he has been deemed likely to appear in court as required later. Releasing an arrestee from custody typically extends the time limit for arraignment, giving prosecutors more time to reflect on the charges to be pursued, to direct followup investigations, and to work out the details of possible alternative case resolutions to be offered pre-arraignment.
