WEST UNION -- Capitol Police have charged a Marion County man with making threats against the governor. Officers charged Jason Clay Anderson, 20, of Farmington, with threatening to commit a terrorist act.
Anderson wrote a letter to Gov. Joe Manchin asking the governor to grant a pardon for him, according to his criminal complaint.
In the letter, Anderson threatened to have someone shoot Manchin in the head if his pardon were not granted, the complaint says.
He also threatened to rape Manchin’s wife, daughter, and family dog, states the complaint.
Anderson also threatened to put a hit out on President Barack Obama, according to the complaint.
Anderson is currently in the North Central Regional Jail, awaiting trial on charges that he killed his 11-month-old child.
A Marion County grand jury indicted him for murder in October 2007.
He will have a preliminary hearing later this week.

Think he'll get his pardon? And, as far as the raping of the family dog, sadly, that happened to a dog in the same town that this moron comes from...

ok, all who think he will get a pardon raise your hands.......1?..oh, your just scratching, ok.......the total is 0.

Pardoned from what though? (he's not even sentenced yet)

If I'm reading this right, he has been sitting with a no bail hold since Oct. '07, or his bail is so high, he can't afford to get out. I know a case like this to sit for a year is normal, but over two years now? There's some more going on with this guy.

The fact he is sitting in Jail, means he is still waiting trial. He is just now going to his prelim, and it could be many moon yet, before he gets sentenced. Once sentenced, they will move him out of Club Med (county jail) and send him up to the Big House.

Maybe he sent this threat as an attempt to prove how crazy he is, and he's hoping to be found incompetent to stand trial.

Personally, I don't think he's crazy...just stupid. A crazy guy would have added the "coup de grace" to his threat.
"... and burn your house down!"

That's like the cherry on the whipped cream.

If I remember correctly, he's in prison for killing his infant child either from abuse or neglect. I'll see if I can hunt down his original charge.

You can do a search for him on the wboy website by searching for "jason anderson" - it comes up with 7 or 8 results all pointing to him.

I do remember this story on the National News, back in '07, now that I see the pair of culprits together.

Both articles still have him in Jail. (Club Med) That means he hasn't been convicted yet.
I can see now why he's still waiting trial after 2 years. They must have used his partner to build a stronger case against him.

......Okay, I've read the articles.
She finally pled guilty, and has agreed to testify against him.
She hasn't been sentenced yet, obviously, to see how his case ends.
Both are resting comfortably at Club Med (Jail) getting 3 hots and a cot.
Not as good as being on welfare laying around smoking dope, but oh well.
His lawyers are playing the stall tactic, and even to recuse the Judge tactic.

(this is Hog reporting for "WTF News".... back to you Mal)

Around me we have one close to this. Man Allegedly Beat to death a 84 year old man and his 82 year old wife so bad that their Funerals had to become Closed Caskets. He was caught the day it happened driving The Victims CAR WITH THEIR CREDIT CARDS AND WALLETS ON HIM PLUS COVERED IN THEIR BLOOD WITH A BLOODY HAMMER IN THE CAR WITH HIM. 3 Years later the Defense has just about run out of stall tatics to keep his ass off of Death row here in IL and we in the area HOPE HE GETS IT.

Seems to me, if you're looking for a pardon, you're sweet and sound sincere. The only way to make something like that work is if you have the upper hand. From where he's at, I don't see him on the winning side. Unless he's already headed in the right direction... Then it will make sure he gets there. Back when Ronnie was Pres., there was one of the "Manson Clan" that threatened the Pres. She got out 20 years later. So, that certainly is a sure way to get a pardon.

There used to be a TV show…America’s Dumbest Criminals or something like that. Two of the funniest ones I remember were the guy that tried to rob a convenience store with a beer box over his head with no eye-holes and the moron that tried throwing a cinder block through a liquor store window that just happened to be bullet proof. The cinder block bounced off and hit the would-be crook in the head. Severe skull fracture and several weeks in the hospital before being hauled off to jail. Ah, criminal stupidity. Sure makes for a fine chuckle or two.

I'm thinking that he must be going for the incompetent to stand trial angle. Unless your truly unhinged I can't see anyone writing this type of letter for any reason especially one seeking a pardon.

And, if you've ever watched the show: "STREET SMARTS" back when that was on TV, there is no shortage of... Umm... Wisdom? Also why I chuckle when I hear the term "COLLECTIVE WISDOM".
