Update:

Casey Ross is now reporting.

State Sen. James Marzilli was arrested in Lowell today for allegedly attacking a woman in broad daylight, just three weeks after prosecutors decided against charging him with sexual assault in a different case.

Marzilli, 49, (D-Arlington) was taken into custody by Lowell police at 3:45 p.m. after allegedly attempting to assault a woman on Middle Street. He is facing charges of assault and battery, attempting to commit indecent assault and resisting arrest, said Corey Welford, a spokesman for Middlesex Distirct Attorney Gerry Leone.

  2. I was always taught to either be lewd or lascivious, but never both at the same time.

  3. Maybe he was just happy to see Ogo disqualified from the race and didn’t know how to appropriately express his joy?

    p>Seriously, though, can this state go 5 months with out a special election? Why bother with November anymore? Unless, of course, Marzilli has Larry Craig’s attorney on speed dial.  

    • it seems odd that someone would (apparently) just start acting out this way.  if this is true, i hope we learn:

    • first and foremost, that his victims are ok.
    • that these two events were the only occurrences.
    • he’s getting mental/emotional help

      • Since whatever happened, happened in Lowell, there is the largest amount of detail:

        p>The reported details are sufficiently weird that I am personally concerned as to the possibility of stroke or a drug interaction [such as can occur between, say, prescription prednisone and certain decongestants].  One of my family members suffered a psychotic episode from the combination of prescribed prednisone and a decongestant, for example.

        p>There are also increasing reports of bizarre and uncharacteristic behavior from the use of tamiflu:

        p>Anyway, I hope Senator Marzilli gets not just a lock up but medical care.  What was reported here makes no sense to me.
