CEDAR RAPIDS — A judge will allow a statement made to police by a man, charged with fatally shooting two teens outside a smoke shop, after he requested a lawyer.Sixth Judicial District Judge Ian Thornhill, in his ruling filed earlier this month, said the investigator asked the question after Andre Richardson, 26, who is charged with two counts of first-degree murder and other charged, requested an attorney but it was only to inform the defendant about the reason for his arrest, not to illicit an incriminating response.After Richardson requested a lawyer, Cedar Rapids police investigator Chip Joecken, asked Richardson if anyone informed him of the charges and if he understood those, according to the ruling.
