The cops released a 24-year-old woman into the night from a remote substation. Now, they're trying to find her as the parents of Mitrice Richardson ratchet up their charges that authorities never should have let her go to begin with.
When Mitrice Richardson could not pay her $89 bill at a Malibu restaurant, the police were called. When deputies arrived, they searched Richardson's car and impounded it after finding a small amount of marijuana. They arrested Richardson for possession of marijuana and not paying her bill, and took her 13 miles away to the Malibu/Lost Hills sheriff's station. Her car remained at the restaurant.
Police say Richardson was released on her own recognizance at 1:30 AM September 18. She hasn't been seen or heard from by her family since. Richardson's parents say she should never have been released at that hour with no transportation or money.
Police deny any wrongdoing. A sheriff's department spokesman declined to go on the air, but told NBC News that Mitrice Richardson is an adult, and there was no reason to keep her in custody after charging her because she showed no signs of being intoxicated.
But her family says there is no justification for allowing her to leave at that hour in an area with which the young woman was unfamiliar.
