Jereme Richmond arraigned; judge denies out-of-state travel

Shanes denied a request by defense attorney James Schwarzbach made on behalf of Richmond to allow the 19-year-old to travel out of state to several cities because he is being recruited by NBA teams.

"This is a young man from this locality," Schwarzbach said. "To not allow him back in [the basketball] court is a different punishment." Schwarzbach said his client had no prior felonies and "promises" to return for all future court dates.
