Federal Judge Releases Richard Brown After Nearly Three Decades in Prison for 1988 Arson
A federal judge ordered the release of Richard Brown, who was sentenced to life in 1997 for his role in a 1988 arson that killed six Kansas City firefighters. Brown, 18 at the time, was released on compassionate grounds and placed on five years of probation with $536,000 restitution. The judge cited Browns young age and strong rehabilitation record, including earning his GED, taking classes, holding jobs, leading programs, staying discipline-free, and completing drug rehab. The release marks a fair second chance for Brown, who served nearly three decades in prison.
