Inspector General David Thomas needs to explain what is happening with his investigation into grade changes that former school superintendent Tony Bennett made for a charter school, said House Minority Leader Scott Pelath, D-Michigan City, at a Statehouse news conference Tuesday.

The Associated Press published emails in July from Bennett and his staff showing a mad scramble last year to bump the Christel House charter grade from a to an Bennett resigned from a high-profile position as schools chief a few days later. A pair of legislative investigators took one month to determine how Bennett altered school- grading formula to benefit Christel House, but declined to look at political motivations. Christel DeHaan, the owner of the charter school, has been a prolific Republican donor, giving more than $2.9 million to Indiana Republicans since 1998. did they do it? Why did they pick the winner in Pelath asked about Christel grade. needs to answer that Pelath requested an update on the investigation in a letter he sent to Thomas on Tuesday.

He also pointed out that the inspector office, which was created and appointed by former Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels, has spent much of its resources investigating low-level fraud in the past few years. Pelath questioned whether it had become a letter for top-level ethics investigations. Thomas declined Tuesday to discuss the specifics of any investigation, but said want to be very thorough and we will conclude it as quickly as we can. speedy resignation caught many national education observers by surprise and left some wondering if more information was coming.

A month later, the AP reported Republican Party fundraising lists had been discovered on state computers, including directions for what Bennett should seek on fundraising calls, in likely violation of state ethics laws. Bennett has maintained he did nothing wrong in changing the grade for Christel House or having fundraising lists on state equipment. No ethics charges have been filed against Bennett. However, the inspector report is often the first step in any referral to a prosecutor, although Marion County prosecutor Terry Curry has the power to call his own investigation if he determines it is needed. The legislative report completed last month by veteran Democratic analyst John Grew and veteran Republican analyst Bill Sheldrake explained how the grading formula was changed, but not why Bennett decided Christel House should receive an The pair said the Bennett administration rushed to put out grades before the November election and said more transparency was needed in the school grading process, but they specifically pointed out their findings neither vindicate nor condemn Bennett.

The school grades, which are crucial in determining teacher pay and school funding, along with more indirect items like home values, are being rewritten by state education leaders now. BENNETT Democrat leader wants faster Bennett review ARRY EUMEISTER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK An alleged al-Qaida member who was snatched off the streets in Libya and interrogated for a week aboard an American warship pleaded not guilty to bombing-related charges Tuesday in a case that has renewed the debate over how quickly terrorism suspects should be turned over to the U.S. courts. Despite calls from Republicans in Congress to send him to Guantanamo Bay for indefinite interrogation, Abu Anas al-Libi became the latest alleged terrorist to face civilian prosecution in federal court in New York, the scene of several such convictions. Al-Libi, wearing a thick gray beard, looked frail and moved slowly as he was led into the heavily guarded courtroom in handcuffs.

An attorney said he had come to court from a New York hospital, where he was treated for three days for hepatitis and swollen limbs. The 49-year-old al-Libi was captured by American commandos during an Oct. 5 military raid in Libya and questioned for a week aboard the USS San Antonio. He was indicted more than a decade ago in the twin 1998 bombings at the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania that killed 224 people, including a dozen Americans.

If convicted, he could get life behind bars. Known as one of early computer experts, al-Libi is accused of helping plan and conduct surveillance for the attacks. He is believed to have used an early- generation Apple computer to assemble surveillance photographs. The defendant kept his hands folded on his lap as the judge read the charges in a courtroom secured by about a dozen deputy U.S. marshals.

The judge ordered him detained after a federal prosecutor called him a Republicans stepped up their criticism of Obama for his handling of al-Libi, saying he should have been sent to the American prison at Guantanamo Bay for more interrogation instead of being taken to the U.S. and given access to civilian courts and the legal protections they provide. Libyan pleads not guilty to terrorism charges.
