Fred is not free to leave Panama, and
Fred is not legally allowed to work, too.
Fred has been on something like "house arrest".
Taken from Fred's website:
At this moment Stefano and I are out of jail
and are living in Panama under a “cautelar.”
This is a sort of “released on one’s own recognizance” condition.
As part of the terms we must go to
the prosecutor’s office weekly and sign in.
We are not free to leave the country until the case is finally decided.
By law, the judge must hold a preliminary trial to determine
whether or not to drop the case or go to a full trial
(which is sort of what a grand jury does in the USA).
