Misplaced Priorities

The killer of a father, who murdered the unarmed man in front of his children, is back in jail. While out on $7,500 bond for the slaying of Tim Watson, Terry Fennessee was arrested and charged with two unrelated drug offenses in Cass and St. Joseph counties, Indiana. In Cass County, he posted $30,000 with the help of a bondsman and in St. Joseph he posted $3,000 cash. Judge Jane Woodward Miller revoked his bond.

It is indicative of a misplaced set of priorities that a drug offense would receive a higher bond than a cold blooded murder. Fennessee will remain locked up until his trial on July 14, 2008.
