Judge Michael Tynan told Redmond, "After residential treatment, I'm going to put you into sober living. You will be given supervised passes only. You understand that? We know what your trigger can be, and I'm not going to say it in open court. I hope you take advantage of this. I think you can make it. Truth and trust, you are having trouble opening up. Maybe the truth will make you free."
