PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti -- The two Idaho missionaries still in Haiti will spend another weekend in jail.

Frank Thorp with NBC News spent the day watching the courthouse in Port-au-Prince for NewsChannel 7 and told us the women had individual meetings with the judge, each for about two hours.

Now, in a very unexpected twist, he says that only one of the women, Charisa Coulter, will likely be released Monday.

The judge has signed her release form, but the prosecutor has chosen not to execute the release today.

Thorp says it is unclear why they have decided to release Coulter and not Silsby.

Both women have returned to jail.
