Judge Releases 19-Year-Old Charged in Facebook Video Torture of Disabled Chicago Teen
I'm betting this person will eventually be in a courtroom again...
Warner Todd Huston recently posted about this on Breitbart.com:
"The suspect also 'pleaded guilty to aggravated battery and intimidation charges. As part of a plea deal, prosecutors dropped additional charges, including kidnapping,' the Tribune said.
Despite the guilty plea, Cook County Circuit Judge William Hooks released Covington without jail time. Telling Covington, 'Do not mess this up,' Judge Hooks imposed 200 hours of community service and banned Covington from using social media and having contact with her co-defendants for four years.
The judge did not assign jail time because, he said, 'I’m not sure if I did that you’d be coming out any better.'"
