"The judge released him on his own personal recognizance," said Brian Greeley, spokesperson for the Middlesex County Sheriff's Office.
Stuckey was released from the Middlesex County jail at about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, Greeley said. He is scheduled to appear in court on March 2, 2000.
HUPD officials said they did not know where Stuckey was heading after being released.
Neither Stuckey's lawyer nor the District Attorney's office could be reached for comment yesterday.
HUPD officials are looking into reinstating security measures they instituted during the height of the robberies this fall, including undercover officers in the dorm.
Meanwhile, Matthews' residents said they should have been notified of Stuckey's release from prison, and parents of first-years are equally outraged at the University's failure to prevent burglaries.
Gervasio A. Lamas '74, the father of a Matthews resident, says he is angry and frustrated by the new robberies. His daughter's room was burglarized in October.
"[This robbery] shows the University's methods for protecting freshmen are woefully inadequate," he said.
