Teen Cop Released

Vincent Richardson, the 14-year-old who got into a world of trouble and exposed some gaping security holes in the Chicago Police Department when he imitated an officer, has been released from juvenile detention. Juvenile Court Judge Andrew Berman ruled Richardson could be released but he'll be put on home monitoring. Berman said, "You're an intelligent person...If you violate, you paint me in a corner where I have to take you into custody." Richardson had been in custody for a month and has another court date on March 27.
