No wonder Chicago is what it is!
This is just crazy! No common sense what-so-ever.
Cook County, IL: 14-Year-Old Charged With Shooting Two, Freed Without Supervision

Welcome to Cook County, Illinois, where crime often has no meaningful consequences. Between a State?s Attorney?s Office reluctant to file charges and judges who mollycoddles defendants, Chicagoland has become the modern Wild West.
Case in point: a 14-year-old who (reportedly) shot and tried to kill two in a nice uptown neighborhood was released by a judge Friday to his parent with no bond ? not even electronic home monitoring.
The Cook County judge claims the police failed to bring this suspected would-be gang killer (pictured above, right) in front of a judge quickly enough. So the judge, in order to penalize the police, released the kid without conditions other than to report to court next week.
Of course, the judge is really only penalizing the community as the accused certainly missed his calling as a choir boy.
The police, on the other hand, said they had concerns about the young man?s safety. Police released images of the suspects to the media in an effort to identify them and the media published them.
The Chicago mainstream media refer to the accused as a ?boy.? Even though this ?boy? reportedly shot one man in the back, abdomen, buttocks and groin and the other in the head.
The Chicago Tribune reported from the scene:
Ricardo Spence had been on his way home from work and just turned the corner to walk south on North Kenmore Avenue when he heard shot after shot behind him, counting as many as six. People started screaming and running. A lone man bolted past him. He thought the man must be the shooter.
?I could tell by the way he was running,? Spence said.
He went back north toward Argyle Street and looked to his right, toward the commotion. He saw blood pooling around a man on the ground as a woman held him, screaming ?No.? Other people were starting to help, Spence said.
He stood there and watched. It seemed like there was nothing he could do.
?It was ? chaotic,? Spence said. ?I was just like, it?s crazy. I just moved here. I didn?t think it was going to be like this.?
The trains kept letting people off at Argyle, and Nolan Van Jackson walked out of the station heading east. He passed by the area where Spence was standing, and saw the woman kneeling next to the man on the ground, hugging him. She seemed like someone who loved him, Van Jackson said. He heard her yelling, ?Breathe, breathe, breathe.?

A good question would be is how much would you have to be paid to become a resident of Chicago. Would it be millions?0
