Cook county sheriff tom dart says that sloppy paperwork caused the problem. The department of corrections had no reference on the front page to the fact that he had time to serve and it talked about a probation case pyrrhic buried in a stack of 30 documents, police documents, not documents that we use, there was a band up piece of paper that referenced something about a sentence. There was nothing. But late tonight, the Illinois Department of corrections released this statment contracticting the Sheriffs Department idoc followed all procedures in informing the Cook County Sheriffs department that. Jeremiah harris. Was to be returned to idoc custody. That return was clearly instructed to be at the conclusion of harris legal proceedings, upon order of the court.

He was dressed in an orange jumpsuit and he told the judge that he has no money and no home. There is not 38 million hidden somewhere, there is not 10 million, there is not even 1 million.
