WHAT IS FRANK ANDERSON THINKING?
If you haven’t seen the video clip of Marion County Sheriff Frank Anderson talking about the Hovey Street murders, I suggest you take a look at the clip. Four people were murdered, including two babies, in what is looking more like a drug-related incident.
In his media address Anderson said,”There’s a special place in hell for you, and we’re going to see that you get there.” If and when these guys are arrested the Sheriff’s statement will likely be used in some pre-trial motion and probably have the case removed from Marion County and thereby making the prosecutor’s job more difficult.
I understand the anger and outrage of this tragedy. Everyone wants the killers brought to justice. But making statements which can easily be construed as prejudicial to the administration of justice and possibly jeopardizing convictions is no way to behave when you consider yourself the County’s chief law enforcement officer. Frank Anderson should know better.
