An Indiana homeowner was charged Monday for fatally shooting a cleaner who went to the wrong house.
Curt Andersen, 62, was charged with voluntary manslaughter in the death of Maria Florinda Rios Perez De Velasquez , 32, in the Indianapolis suburb of Whitestown, prosecutors announced Monday.
Andersen fatally shot Rios on Nov. 5 and admitted as much in a police interview, but the charges were delayed while prosecutors considered Indiana’s “stand your ground” law.
“Honestly it wasn’t, I hate to sound cavalier about this, but it was not a hard decision ,” Boone County Prosecutor Kent Eastwood said Monday at a press conference.
Rios and her husband were supposed to clean a model home on a nearby street but instead showed up on Andersen’s front porch at 7 a.m. on Nov. 5, according
