More Willie Hortons from Kennedy Camp

The Indianapolis Star reported today Melina Kennedy's new charges that Carl Brizzi's failures as prosecutor left a criminal on the streets, and allowed him to kill. If only her ads were this aggressive.

She was referring to Terrence "Mob" Anderson, 23, who was arrested in June 2005 and charged with three killings over two days on Indianapolis' Eastside.

In May 2005, Anderson had been in Marion County Jail on potential battery, handgun and cocaine possession charges. But Anderson was released while the prosecutor’s office waited for ballistics test results.

Several days later, on June 3, the prosecutor's office filed charges -- but Anderson wasn't arrested before the slayings on June 9 and June 10.

One of two shooting victims in one of the May incidents had identified Anderson in a photo lineup, but Brizzi and other officials said stronger evidence was needed. Once the test results came back June 3, Brizzi said, charges were filed as soon as possible.

"This is yet another in a series of misstatements by my opponent, who doesn't understand the process, who's never tried a case or put a criminal behind bars," said Brizzi, adding that suspects can't be held more than three days without charges. "We couldn't be any more aggressive without violating our Constitutional obligations."

Anderson has been convicted in the murder of Thomas Edmondson, 21, and sentenced to 60 years in prison. He was acquitted in the murder of Kerry Burk, 19. A trial is set Oct. 23 in the murder a third man, Tyric Rudolph, 16, and on the charges stemming from the May 2005 incidents.
