Judge Frees TV Pitchman Kevin Trudeau From Jail

CHICAGO October 29, 2013 (AP)

A federal judge has ordered the release from jail of Kevin Trudeau after the TV pitchman spent nearly a week behind bars for failing to pay a $37 million civil judgment.

Judge Robert Gettleman ordered the 50-year-old's release at a hearing Monday in Chicago.

Trudeau had been jailed for contempt since last Tuesday after Gettleman said he didn't believe Trudeau was being honest about his global assets.

But Gettleman added Trudeau might be able to answer a receiver's questions better while free.
