Marzilli Indicted for Alleged Assaults against 4 Women

Indictment for Mass State Senator who Allegedly Went After 4 Women in One Day


State Senator James Marzilli of Arlington, Massachusetts, was indicted today for allegedly assaulting four women in Lowell on June 3.  The charges were indecent assault and battery, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest.  His arraignment will happen next week, although it hasn't been officially scheduled.

Marzilli, 50, has decided not to seek another term in office this fall but will remain at his post until the end of his term.  After a few days after his arrest on June 3, Marzilli did check himself in at McLean Hospital, a psychiatric hospital in Belmont.

His behavior was disturbing on that day when he went after those women.  Is he a pervert or a very mentally disturbed man?

Something to ponder.
