A Chicago man who bound his 22-month-old daughter with tape and posted a photo on Facebook was acquitted Tuesday of unlawful restraint and will find out the verdict on a second charge next week.

Cook County Circuit Judge Lawrence Flood acquitted the 22-year-old father of one charge after a bench trial.
