What kind of security is that? I thought they were supposed to ask for identification, etc.
QUOTE NEW YORK - Police are looking for a well-dressed robbery suspect who walked out of a Manhattan courthouse after an officer apparently mistook him for a lawyer.
Ronald Tackman was wearing a business suit while waiting to appear before a judge Wednesday morning.
Authorities said Tackman slipped away from a prisoner holding area to a locked area behind a court room. That's where his attorney, Joseph Heinzmann, says a court officer spotted him and, thinking he was a lawyer, let him out.

Lawyer Him Mistakes Officer Escapes Prisoner
This is a case where a officer of the court made a big mistake. Any time you take a prisoner out of the locked area a officer is to be with him or her at all times. If they meet privately with their lawyer they are placed in a room with only one door in and out. The officer waits right outside. Someone messed up here and they should be suspended.
